July 19, 2021 - Update 11

Further to the communication which we had shared last week on the Civil Unrest in South Africa, we realise that our customers have been impacted with the delivery of goods to markets. We acknowledge that there have been challenges faced in terms of personal safety and mental wellbeing and our commitment remains to provide reliable and updated information towards your supply chain concerns.

The situation appears to be normalising and the port terminals are back in operation. To ensure the optimal operation at the port and to facilitate the flow of cargo both imports and exports, we would like to encourage all customers to take release of shipments and alleviate any impact to port congestion. We understand that customers may have been impacted and unable to receive their cargo and therefore Maersk will support with reduced tariffing as follows

* This considered rate is subject to Heavy and Reefer rates as applicable for Multi-Stop Fees
**Please note that reduced Tariff for Storage applies to Depots only

We wish to bring to your attention that for all other areas (Port Elizabeth, East London, Cape Town load and discharge) existing tariffs remain in place as published.

As the situation remains fluid, Maersk reserves the right to amend the processes and revised terms as deemed necessary. We kindly request your continued attention to our Customer advisories as this is the most effective means of communication channel to reach out customers.

We appreciate your continued co-operation and support as we work together to keep the supply chains going to serve our markets in South Africa.

We remain contactable via all our usual channels and look forward to hearing from you.
