Whatsapp-ening in reefer market?

The newly established Durban Reefer Container Operations Forum (DRCOF) has set up a WhatsApp group that has been created for the Durban area.

Initiated by Mitchell Brooke, logistics development manager of the Citrus Growers’ Association, together with the Perishable Products Export Control Board (PPECB) and TPT, the DRCOF is designed to make all the current challenges to the citrus export supply chain very much things of the past.

The WhatsApp group is one of the tools for this project and is used to report all operational problems related to reefer containers in Durban. It has already proven to be quite useful, says Brooke. “This is strictly to highlight congestion at the various operational facilities,” he added.

If you would like to be added to the database send a TXT or WhatsApp request to 082 892 9455.

Logistics performance in SA is slipping downhill, according to the World Bank. But it still maintains the top spot in Africa according to the organisation’s Logistics Performance Index (LPI) report for 160 countries in 2014.

It scores six key dimensions between 0-5 (with 5 the top

score). And a country’s overall LPI score is the weighted average of its scores on these six.

With SA’s 2014 score in brackets, the six dimensions are:

* Efficiency of the clearance process (ie, speed, simplicity and predictability of formalities) by border control agencies, including customs (3.11);

* Quality of trade and transport related infrastructure eg, ports, railroads, roads, information technology (3.20);

* Ease of arranging competitively priced shipments (3.45);

* Competence and quality of logistics services eg, transport operators, customs brokers (3.62);

* Ability to track and trace consignments (3.30); and

* Timeliness of shipments in reaching destination within the scheduled or expected delivery time (3.88).

As you can see, SA’s top scores are for “timeliness” and “logistics competence”; our lowest for “customs” and “infrastructure”.

Ranking this country at 34th place in 2014, the WB noted that, after a 6.53% decline in

Cement dumping investigationOn 22 August 2014 the International Trade Administration Commission of South Africa (Itac) announced the initiation of an investigation into the alleged dumping of portland cement, classifiable under tariff subheading 2523.29, originating in or imported from Pakistan and being dumped on the Southern African Customs Union (Sacu) market, causing material injury to the Sacu cement industry.

The application was lodged by Afrisam (South Africa) (Pty) Ltd, Lafarge Industries South Africa (Pty) Ltd, NPC Cimpor (RF) (Pty) Ltd and PPC Ltd who submitted sufficient evidence and established a prima facie case to enable Itac to arrive at a reasonable conclusion that an investigation should be initiated on the basis of dumping, material injury and/or threat of material

injury and causality.Comment is due by 02

October 2014.

Caustic soda investigationItac on 22 August 2014 announced the creation of a Rebate Item (rebate provision) on sodium hydroxide (caustic soda) in aqueous solution (soda lye or liquid soda), classifiable in tariff subheading 2815.12, for use in the manufacture of sodium hypo chlorite solution, classifiable in tariff subheading 2828.90.

The application was lodged by NCP Chlorchem (Pty) Ltd who reasoned that the product in question was not manufactured in sufficient quantities in the Sacu market.

Comment is due by 19 September 2014.

Iron/steel wire customs duty increaseOn 22 August 2014 the South African Revenue

Service (Sars) announced an increase in the “General” rate of customs duty on wire of iron or non-alloy steel, plated or clad with other base metals, classifiable under tariff subheading 7217.30, from free of customs duty to 10% ad valorem. The application took 130 days to complete.

Vitrifiable Enamels Tariff Sars on 22 August 2014 announced the substitution of tariff subheading 3207.20, “Vitrifiable enamels and glazes, engobes (slips) and similar preparations”, and the insertion of tariff subheadings 3207.20.10 “Vitrifiable enamels and similar preparations” and 3207.20.20 “Vitrifiable glazes, engobes (slips) and similar preparations”. The “General” rate of duty on tariff subheading 3207.20.10 was set at 5% ad valorem, whilst the remaining rate of duty is

free. The application took 182 days to complete.

Customs Control Act RulesOn 18 August 2014 Sars invited participation in the first workshop session on the Rules to Chapters 1, 3 to 10 to the Customs Control Act, 2014 to be held on 29 August 2014 at 09:00 to 13:00 at Linton House Auditorium, Sars, Brooklyn, Pretoria.

The new 24-hour regulation for air and sea cargo to SA, soon to be brought in under the Customs Control Act, will have little or no impact on shipping or air lines, according to Dave Watts, maritime director of the SA Association of Freight Forwarders (Saaff).

“What it means is that sea carriers will have to advise SA customs of all shipments 24 hours before they are loaded on a vessel,” he told FTW. “The timing is different for air (as per the act), but the same logic applies.”

It is designed to give customs the chance to prevent the shipment of any goods which may be suspicious.

“The details of the shipments will be fed into their risk management system, which will then f lag any shipments which may require further examination,” Watts said. “Customs can then

send a ‘no load’ notification to the carrier if there is anything suspicious.”

How will it affect the carriers?“It probably won’t cause them

any problems,” said Watts. “The shipping lines, for example, have been dealing with this for some time under the US container security initiative (CSI), and similar 24-hour rules in the likes of South Korea, China and Japan.

“So they are all perfectly used to the principle.”

And for it now to be applied in SA?

“I think it’s a good thing,” said Watts, “and can only add to security in the international supply chain.”

The new regulation will only be applied when the new act comes into force, Watts added. And that will only be once SA Revenue Service (Sars) customs has completed all its necessary rules to go with the new regulations.

Collaboration between reefer shippers and Durban’s Transnet Port Terminals (TPT) is bearing fruit thanks to several interventions introduced by TPT to streamline the movement of cargo.

Taking the almost year-old working relationship between the Citrus Growers’ Association (CGA) and TPT one step further was the launch earlier this month of the Durban Reefer Container Operations Forum (DRCOF).

“It’s clear that much has been done at the terminals since the first engagements began with TPT at the end of the 2013 season,” said Mitchell Brooke, logistics development manager of CGA.

Pier 1, he pointed out, has implemented a dedicated reefer (refrigerated container) lane. It has also brought in a gantry crane and a back-up reach stacker (which is not wind- sensitive) when high winds are experienced.

Additional reefer plug-in points have been installed and the total now stands at 892 points for 40 foot (12 metre) containers (FEUs).

There are two reefer trains in operation from Letsitele in the Limpopo province and these are received directly into the reefer stacks at Pier 1.

Pier 2 – which serves the Durban Container Terminal (DCT) – has also joined the

game. It has also introduced a priority lane for reefer containers, with additional plug-in points installed to now bring the total to 1 744 FEU points.

And “amazingly”, Brooke added, the reefer trains have recorded an average turnaround time of around three hours – with almost no issues from Transnet Freight Rail (TFR).

“This,” he said, “should hopefully pave the way for more trains to come on line in the near future.”

But Brooke also illustrated some major challenges for the passage of citrus exports through the Port of Durban.

Particularly he noted the congestion caused by import and export stacks overlapping, causing some major issues throughout the chain. This was especially relevant when export stacks for the SA-Europe Container Service (Saecs) and MSC Europe (MSCEU) services overlapped – because 60% of all export citrus reefers leaving Durban are sent on these ships.

“When this happens,” he said, “the three days needed (as per the allocated stack days) to load out the sheer volume of containers is just not adequate for the cold stores and transporters to do it in.”

Brooke believes there are five key aspects required to enhance the effectiveness of the reefer container operations in the Durban port.

Terminals should allow 48-hours’ notice for firming reefer export stack days – and this must be held firm without changes. This would ensure all

planning is executed without disruptions from stack dates shifting.

He also stressed that Pier 1 and Pier 2 should co-ordinate to ensure the Saecs and MSCEU reefer export stacks are planned so that they do not overlap.

“There is also a need to develop a centralised and integrated system to co-ordinate all the export bookings and operational planning requirements between all the role players in the chain,” he said.

Added to that Brooke suggested that shipping lines should collaborate to use a central container depot to store primary or secondary equipment stock-holding. “The depot must then operate 24 hours in the peak season,” he said, “where most depots in Durban do not.”

The final key aspect was the introduction of seven-day reefer export stacks at the four Durban container terminals. Just as is the case in Ngqura, PE and Cape Town ports. “Failing which,” Brooke said, “the Durban terminals should introduce a formalised process for ‘early arrivals’, to assist when cold stores are blocked out.”

T he true impact of the country’s new Customs bills on the groupage industry

remains to be seen, according to industry experts currently scrutinising the rules and regulations that will guide the new legislation.

Most are in agreement though that the bills and the proposed rules published so far appear to have missed opportunities to clarify some matters and address others that are not addressed at all.

Examples of this include clarification of the meaning of the term “delivery” used in the new Act, in particular as it relates to what constitutes delivery, as this impacts the timing of the transfer of control of uncleared cargo, and the related responsibility for duties and VAT.

“A matter that is of concern to me, that does not seem to be addressed, is the movement of groupage cargo within South Africa, where the final destination on the house bill of lading is within South Africa but is different from the final destination of the ocean bill of lading,” said one expert to whom FTW spoke. “As an example, inside an import container destined for Durban there's cargo to be delivered to Johannesburg.

The container must be unpacked in a customs-licensed container depot in Durban, and this would typically be road hauled to Johannesburg to a container depot there for ultimate release to the consignee upon presentation of the customs release notification.”

The consignee would then process their bill of entry in Johannesburg. This movement is not specifically covered in the Act, however a suggestion has been made that a removal in transit (RIT) entry would be required.

“This is not practically feasible and would add significant additional cost to an already expensive process, again making us less competitive internationally with higher input costs,” he explained.

The need for this additional entry is further called into question when one considers that the container depots have all already posted large guarantees with customs to cover a scenario should the cargo be released in South Africa before it is approved for release by customs.

“So if cargo is moving between licensed container depots, operated by the same licensee, and is properly manifested and controlled, I

would propose that customs is adequately protected, without making the system overly burdensome. If the container depot operator could use his depot code to record the movement, this could then be treated as an “RIT” by customs, and the manifests could be lodged via EDI with customs similar to the other depot EDI messages,” he explained.

Most are in agreement though that at present it is a wait and see game.

“There are also some proposed regulations that are just not practically possible or consistent with international best practice. The effect this has on our ability to remain internationally competitive and act as a hub into Africa cannot be

under-estimated, especially when one considers that our neighbours are becoming more competitive and attractive to our international customers,” said another source.

Ultimately most say the process of scrutinising the rules and regulations should not be rushed and customs should give due consideration to the input of all role players.

F orwarding and logistics major a. hartrodt has launched a

concerted drive to grow its Africa business – with groupage high on the agenda.

“We see Africa as a market of significant potential,” says newly appointed CEO Guido Ghiselli. “South Africa has established itself as a supplier to the region and we plan to develop our services to tap into that potential.

“We already have some agents in Africa and are in close discussions with several others. Most have worked with us as handling agents but since we are now looking at expansion we are looking for partners with whom we can develop.”

Outgoing managing director Gerald Rowe will spearhead the company’s over-border expansion efforts until his term of office ends at the end of next year.

And for Ghiselli, who has been based in Japan for the past 20 years, it’s about creating a service ethic that is globally recognised.

“Industry is moving away from a culture of ‘that’s Africa’ when it comes to service.

“Shippers here and in neighbouring countries are

desperate for supply chain visibility – and that’s where we intend to implement systems that will provide quality and stability of service.”

Over the past few decades hartrodt’s groupage product has focused largely on Europe and the East. “Our footprint in both these markets is strong – and the idea is to build on those strengths, distributing into the continent.

Groupage is part of the company’s DNA. It was born as an NVOCC and its footprint has always been strong in seafreight and LCL cargo.

It currently co-loads in an alliance – branded Team

Player – on certain routes. “The growth of the neutral NVOCC has fragmented the market to a certain extent, but as a group we are still able to provide a variety of services on countless routes.”

The bottom line is that in the current economic

environment customers need flexible solutions to help them with their stock levels – and that’s where groupage

comes into play.“We’re looking

to provide a door-to-door service by

introducing systems that can increase the level of visibility

for the customer and give us a better level

of control.”

It’s about creating a service ethic that is globally recognised.Guido Ghiselli“

While the idea of moving cargo without hard copy documents is still sometimes viewed with some trepidation, technology is fast becoming a game changer, in the view of Mike Todd, VP Africa for Air Menzies International SA.

“AMI is currently partnering with several airlines and moving export shipments using e-waybill technology,” Todd told FTW. “This process requires not only procedural changes in the operation but also a mindset change within one’s operators,” he said. “In the beginning it is almost like jumping off a cliff and hoping for a soft landing. You have to believe that paperless works – and apart from small teething issues it certainly does."

He said AMI had launched a new product called Click2Ship in South Africa after huge success in the UK and USA.

“This is an online express door to door service for small export shipments. Our customers can access a quote off their PC or ipad to anywhere in the world and book the shipment within minutes. The shipment is collected and delivered on their behalf without any further interaction required from the customer,” he said.

Medical and pharmaceutical cargo as well as emergency spare parts are boosting airfreight volumes, according to Anita Nel, national sales and customer services manager for domestic airfreight consolidator Trans Airfreight.

General airfreight volumes are, however, on the decline, she told FTW.

“This we can attribute to ever-increasing costs and customers having to re-think their method of distribution, often opting for road freight,” she said. “In the current economic environment where costs are critical, airfreight is increasingly reserved for priority or urgent cargo – which explains the growth in medical and pharmaceutical products as well as high-value items and urgent documentation.”

Escalating costs and tougher security requirements have weighed heavily on the industry

globally, and against this background it’s had no choice but to re-invent itself, finding ways of boosting declining volumes.

“We have, unfortunately, experienced a drop in domestic airfreight volumes,” said Nel. “Turning this around remains a priority and therefore there is major focus on offering a one-stop-shop service where we meet customer requirements speedily and cost-effectively. At the same time adapting to industry changes and requirements is key to achieving this goal.”

The company works closely with all domestic airline suppliers, says Nel. “It is imperative that new services that are affordable and cost-effective are introduced in order to attract more cargo to airfreight. Flexibility will also make airfreight a viable option.”

Compliance with strict

international standards is another key priority, she said.

“We have most recently seen the introduction of the regulation on the airfreight of cargo containing lithium ion batteries which has forced domestic consolidators to adapt their operations to comply,” she said.– Liesl Venter

Independent groupage operator CFR Freight has continued to hone its service offering

with the introduction of new import services on the Marseille-Durban and Cape Town routes and from Karachi to Cape Town. A new export option from Durban to Hong Kong was also recently launched.

“Our services are very stable and our global coverage is comprehensive,” says managing director Martin Keck. “Our Africa destinations are growing

– both from South Africa and from the east in terms of transhipments. On the back of this we recently increased our frequency to Tema/Ghana to a weekly service.”

But the phenomenal economic growth in Africa is a double-edged sword that has seen the launch of several new direct services from the Far East to sub-Saharan Africa – Shanghai to Mombasa

for example – that would previously have been transhipped in Durban.

CFR has recorded significant growth in

cross-trade enquiries. “It’s something we are well placed to provide and this is where our network, the World Wide Alliance, comes into play. We can connect any two places in the world no matter what origin or destination,” said Keck.

Future service expansion will be informed by customer demand, says CEO Peter Schmidt-Löff ler.

“We’re always looking at new options to better serve our customers and are working on additional direct services from inland stations in China.”

The bottom line is that

CFR’s groupage services are both mature and ripe for expansion. It’s the added value that the national container freight station, ZacPak, has to offer that takes it to a new level, says Schmidt-Löff ler.

“We’ve seen growth in demand for export packing into Africa where we

see huge potential,” says ZacPak managing director Willie Nel. “This is an area which has grown beyond budgeted expectation. The integration of products

and services is clearly a huge advantage for us and our clients,” he told FTW.

And the benefits are

tangible, said Nel.“All our cargo from

Durban is moving by road and by controlling the cargo we can reduce transit time by 50%. We can also track transit cargo from origin to unpack here or delivery to final consignee.”

“We have invested a lot of money in improving our IT and information portal for our clients, ensuring total supply chain visibility which is a key priority,” said Keck.

Keeping ever-increasing costs at bay while improving delivery times remains the challenge for the consolidation industry in Botswana.

According to Rudi Nagel, business development manager for Express Cartage, a Gaborone-headquartered business that provides consolidation transport services to hundreds of retailers throughout Botswana, competitive pricing, on-time collections and deliveries, documentation management and constant feedback are key for customers.

“Most retailers in Botswana source their supplies from South Africa and the cost of this transportation

directly impacts the cost of products,” said Nagel. “Keeping these costs down is a critical element of all retailers’ supply chain strategies, which is evident from the high number of express cross-border transporters in Botswana.”

But reliability is the game-changer, in his view.

“The loss of a sale could impact revenues far more than a cheap and nasty rate. I believe retailers’ thinking is becoming more focused on quality and reliability which forces service providers to go the extra mile,” said Nagel.

The company has significantly increased capacity to handle higher volumes from South Africa to Botswana and has also improved its

clearing process to reduce unnecessary delays. “The greatest challenge faced by any cross-border transporter is border delays,” says

Nagel. “With an average of around 40% of all time and resources consumed by border procedures and standing time at the

borders it’s crucial for express service providers to continuously streamline operations to maintain their competitive advantage.”

C onsolidation volumes remain under pressure thanks to

economic challenges and increasing costs which are difficult to recover, says Neil Harris, senior executive: marketing and sales for neutral wholesaler Regional Wholesale Services.

“Critical cost reduction is required to become more efficient and competitive as simply passing on costs is currently just not possible. Volumes have been coming off since the latter half of April with all the public holidays and have been under pressure since. Many of our customers have reported up to double-digit declines in volume compared to the same period last year – as well as

previous months whereas they were ahead of the average market growth curve last year and into Q1 this year.”

Drawn-out industrial action, acquisitions and in some cases business closures have been further signs of the difficult market conditions, says Harris.

“There’s also been a tendency among customers we serve to split their allegiances amongst service providers for better negotiating power which places pressure on yields and sustainability,

especially since RWS supplies and maintains one of the most extensive wholesale networks on offer,” says Harris.

There is also an increasing move from typical courier companies’ minimum shipment f lyer bag type business to a larger mix of business-to-business, retail and B2C freight.

“Logistics is all about economies of scale and producing critical mass to keep your transport unit as cost-efficient as possible – especially when

maintaining a 15-branch network inland. The consolidation benefit on our line-haul vehicles enables our customers to maximise their consolidation strength into lower costs per waybill,” explains Harris.

His outlook for the regional wholesale consolidation industry is however positive, despite current challenges.

Harris says RWS continues to focus on its IT offering through integration with its customers from freight

acceptance to proof of delivery (POD).

“Automation is the key to faster communication, transparency, customer visibility of the delivery process and accuracy of billing. Less reliance on paper f low and optimum resource utilisation is what we are striving for to the benefit of our customers,” he added.

On the back of significant growth in volumes from

the Indian subcontinent, South East Asia and China – and with expectations of further growth – International Liner Agencies (ILA) introduced bi-weekly sailings from several ports in the Far East recently.

According to the independent groupage operator’s marketing director, Raymond Cutts, while the Eurozone volumes have remained constant the same cannot be said for the Indian subcontinent, Asia and China.

“This is a trend we are seeing throughout our business. Year-on-year growth in both imports and exports can also be attributed to the focused development of all our trade lanes.”

ILA recently expanded its extensive base in Asia

and India by entering into an exclusive partnership deal with Vanguard Logistics Services (VLS).

Cutts said while pricing continued to play a significant role, as margins remained under pressure companies had to work harder at developing trade routes and finding innovative ways to meet the challenges in the market.

“Trade route specialisation is the key to identifying where you can add value,” he told FTW. “Being able to offer a service is very different from delivering one that adds value. When you are able to make a measurable difference to your client's business is when you are bringing innovation to the table. That remains our mission.”

He said ILA was

undergoing some significant change due to internal growth. “We have restructured the management team which has seen Kevin Taylor appointed to the board of directors in the role of sales director.

Taylor previously served as the Far East trade and Johannesburg branch manager for the company.

For the year ahead the focus will be on new business development, developing and maintaining close relationships with service providers and sales, he said.

Ongoing strikes have taken their toll on the airfreight industry with export volumes down compared to last year.

According to Mike Todd, VP Africa for Air Menzies International SA, volumes for the first six months of this year have declined by at least 5% compared to the same period last year.

“The biggest contributor to the drop in volumes has been the strikes,” he told FTW. “The protracted strikes saw lower production levels while some businesses were unable to move their export stock out of their warehouses due to the intimidation of hauliers.”

Economists have warned of the detrimental effect of the strikes on the country’s economy. Not only do they discourage foreign investment, they also significantly dent export earnings – the impact of which is felt across the supply chain.

According to Todd the

airfreight industry was particularly hard hit, and with predictions of South African GDP growth being only in the region of 1.7% this year, there is very little chance of gaining lost ground.

“It is very unlikely that we will improve on 2013 volumes in the second half of the year,” he said. “It also seems that airfreight rates are set to continue on their downward trend in this economic climate.”

With an over-supply of service providers all chasing a reducing cargo pot it has become an extremely competitive environment.

“It becomes questionable whether airlines should be happy about the distribution of International Air Transport Association (Iata) statistics showing volumes and rates of its agents as it makes the environment even more competitive,” said Todd. “While it is interesting marketing information, it

also opens the door for the competition, adding pressure to the already downward rate spiral.”

Todd also questions the practice of sending out monthly or quarterly specials as an attempt to attract more cargo.

“Generally those specials are countered by opposition airlines and the end result

is a dilution of yield on the business you were carrying anyway. We know that airlines servicing the South African route are firstly

attracted due to passenger volumes and secondly by import traffic,” he said. “The positive spin-off is that South African exports are benefiting from relatively

low subsidised freight rates as a result of passenger and import cargo demand and the freight price war.”

Protracted strikes leave their mark

With an over-supply of service providers all chasing a reducing cargo pot it has become an extremely competitive environment.

Independent groupage operator CFR Freight has re-launched its export

airfreight product out of Johannesburg and Durban to provide a more competitive service to its customers.

“We’re concentrating our volumes and buying power with the airlines so that we can pass on the cost benefits to our customers to make them more competitive in their market,” airfreight general manager Stephen Bishop told FTW.

“We’ve also changed the way we’re quoting customers. We now offer an all-in tariff that includes freight, fuel, security and screening

as a one-line tariff per destination. It simplifies the way we are quoting customers and makes it easier for them to do price comparisons.

The company’s Durban operation has relocated to Mobeni where ocean, air and ZacPak are now housed under one roof with all the benefits of shared infrastructure.

“On the inbound routes our ‘Rolls Royce’ services – from the US, Germany, China and Hong Kong – continue to perform well, attracting business from a cross-section of customers from small forwarders to multi-nationals,” he told FTW.

“We have also expanded our import product

offering and can now draw and deliver cargo all around Johannesburg on behalf of our customers.”

And thanks to the company’s increased spend with the airlines over the past year it is now rated among the top ten Iata cargo agents in South Africa. “That improves our buying power – with downstream benefits for our customers.”– Joy Orlek

Failure to liberalise intra-Africa air routes is costing sub-Saharan Africa’s major airlines millions of dollars, according to International Air Transport Association senior economist James Wiltshire.

“Airlines have the power and potential to transform economic growth in Africa – and the key to unlocking that growth is air service liberalisation and improved air connectivity between neighbours,” Wiltshire told delegates at last week’s Iata Aviation Day Africa conference in Sandton.

Iata formally launched the 96-page report, ‘Transforming Intra-African Air Connectivity: The Economic Benefits of Implementing the Yamassoukro Decision’ at the conference and received endorsement from South Africa’s Minister of Transport, Dipuo Peters as well as her Ghanaian counterpart, Dzifa Ativor.

Peters said that the South African government was committed to pushing for improved aviation inter-connectivity in Africa. “We

are currently negotiating bi-lateral trade agreements with a number of countries on the continent – including improved air route networks,” she said. “Currently it is very difficult for people on the continent to do business as they often have to fly to another African country via Europe or the Middle East simply to deliver goods or have a business meeting as the routes are not there.”

She said it was currently more cost-effective to do business on a global scale than on a regional or continental one. “This needs to change to ensure broader economic transformation in Africa,” noted Peters. She told FTW on the sidelines of the conference that government was making headway in its plans to reposition South Africa’s national carrier, South African Airways (SAA), as a major aviation player on the African continent. “We hope to see results on SAA’s economic turnaround strategy in two or three years,” she said.– Adele Mackenzie

Do you feel you are being held hostage to high prices and bad service... time to do something about it

Alan Peat

Mix together the Chinese and consolidations and you’ll have

the right ingredients for what many in the industry call “one of the world’s great rip-offs”.

And just what is that? It’s the now infamous China import service fee (CISF).

It’s anything but new, having been on the go ever since 2005. But any not-in-the-know, less-than-container-load (LCL) importers who decide for the first time to buy goods from China will suddenly, and surprisingly, find themselves hit with an invoice for the CISF. And that after the goods have arrived.

And what is this charge all about?

Well, in the grammatically unsound words of E-to-China.com (ETCN) – an information platform officially supported by the General Administration of Customs and jointly sponsored by the China Customs Declaration Association

More than 190 maritime incidents were reported in the six months from January to June this year. This represents significant financial losses to cargo owners without the requisite

marine insurance to protect their financial interests in their cargo, and in particular for general average losses, according to Jeffry Butt, marine manager at Aon South

Africa.“Many importers and exporters

run the gauntlet of not insuring their cargo in

a bid to save on costs. But

cargo insurance is an essential means to guard against serious financial loss, and in particular as the application of general average

losses grows and becomes more commonplace,” he told FTW.

A General Average occurs when a voluntary sacrifice is made to safeguard the vessel, cargo and crew from a common peril – for example, jettison of cargo to lighten a vessel in order to get to the closest port to prevent a ship from sinking and even piracy. “If the sacrifice is successful, all parties contribute to the loss based on a percentage share that their cargo value bears to the full value of loss suffered, with the maximum contribution not exceeding the full value of their cargo,” said Butt.

“If the cargo is not insured, it will not be released until the cargo owner posts a guarantee in the form of a cash deposit, bank guarantee or bond. If the cargo is insured, however, the insurance company will post the General Average Bond and Guarantee to meet the cargo owner’s contribution and

facilitate release of the cargo.”The impact of consequential

losses and trade disruptions is also a huge risk factor, he points out. “Salvage operations can take weeks and even months, leaving companies without their cargo and no sales activity. In the case of piracy, ships and cargo can be held for months on end before any ransom negotiations even begin. This leaves business massively exposed to profit loss risks if they are not insured properly,” he added.

China import service fee not going away(CCBA) and the Beijing International Technology Co-operation Centre (BITCC) – it is: “(An) additional fee of import product from China. The agency take(s) this charge at the port of destination and it is (a) flexible fee, so it is according to the negotiation between importer and exporter to decide who shall make the payment. It is usually indicated in the contract that who should make the payment and it is not directly related with the government of China.”

Once you have struggled through that, you will realise that it still doesn’t tell you why it is there in the first place.

It started in October 2005, when – for LCL shipments – Chinese transportation companies introduced the CISF for no other reason

than to further finance their operations. LCL business is not in high demand because exporters favour full container loads (FCL) as China is a mass quantity market.

Therefore, the deconsolidation agents in the foreign destination ports will charge the CISF through the foreign consignee and not through the exporter.

This fee is then fed back to the consolidator in China.

There are ongoing disputes about whether this charge is legally valid. But, as yet, no court findings have been reported from anywhere in the world.

It is best to remember the words from ETCN. It is a flexible fee, so the importer and exporter have to negotiate on who shall bear the cost

and the decision is usually indicated in the contract.

The crux of the matter is that a buyer of goods needs to set out and agree with his supplier the precise terms under which the goods are sold before placing an order to avoid unexpected charges on arrival of the goods at the point of delivery (POD).

There’s no formula to work out just how each CISF amount has been calculated – it’s purely at the discretion of the Chinese supplier.

But it doesn’t matter what it is – inflated charges, CISF, or whatever – it is up to the importer to negotiate this with the supplier, and be sure of just who is liable for what.

Also, it’s no use the importer deciding to go cost, insurance, freight (CIF in Incoterms),

and expecting that that’s all he’ll pay for. Any other surcharges along the way, from whatever source, can still be added to the final landed charge. And it’s a case of pay up and argue later – else he won’t get his goods delivered.

Maybe it’s better to go free on board (FOB) or ex-works. Then you’d be in charge of all the costs along the way.

But that’s where a Catch 22 raises its ugly head. If you do this, then the supplier will tell you that he can’t offer you the same attractive price. And you’ll still have to

pay more in the end.According to Mike

Walwyn, chairman of the Cape Port Liaison Forum (PLF) and vice chairman of the SA Association of Freight Forwarders (Saaff), this unique Chinese charge is just about inescapable.

“I’ve had it out a few times with consolidators,” he added, “and had occasional refunds. But mostly they say they have to pay this to their overseas source.”

So stay awake when you’re dealing with the Chinese and consolidations, or the CSIF will come along and bite you.

“What would be the cost of supply chain logistics if crucial national highways were not maintained?”

This was the question South African National Roads Agency Limited (Sanral) CEO Nazir Ali put to participants in the first South African Shippers’ Council (SASC) speed networking session in Midrand last week.

He said major funding was required to maintain and upgrade an ageing national and provincial road network of 618 000 kilometres. “A good road system saves both time and money,” said Ali, referring to the Automobile Association

(AA) study which estimates that the average person spends 40 hours per month stuck in traffic. “With 75% of South Africa’s freight currently moved by road, what does an average work week’s lost productivity mean to your business?” he asked.

He believes tolls are the only viable option for maintaining the 10th- largest road network in the world – 21 400

kilometres of which are managed by Sanral. “Currently, only 15% of South Africa’s national road network is tolled, which means that the

majority of road upgrade and maintenance funding comes from the national treasury,” he said. Current legislation does not allow toll funds to be spent on non-tolled roads.

Responding to a question

around e-toll compliance in Gauteng – which has been put at less than 40% – and rumoured cash flow problems, Ali said the ratios of paying and non-paying road users varied from month to month, “depending on a number of variables”. “But in terms of cash flow, we are doing far better than we predicted.”

User-pay system?Commenting on the suggestion of a “user-pay” principle which would see those logistics operators who

“abused” the system by overloading trucks or not adhering to other road regulations being penalised more than their

compliant counterparts, Ali said it was not practical as it needed much closer policing than was feasible. “Instead, we need to collectively find ways to change the behaviour of the road user,” he said. The South African culture has a high tolerance of what Ali calls “white collar crime” which includes overloading and speeding.– Adele Mackenzie

Thanks to a concerted drive to help grow regional and global trade, Ethiopian Airlines was the only airline of the top three in sub-Saharan Africa to make a profit over the past three years.

The other two – Kenya Airways and South African Airways – joined the rest of the region’s airlines in suffering cumulative losses in the period 2011-2014.

“Ethiopian Airlines (ET) has the largest cargo fleet in Africa and part of its success lies in the fact that it worked with exporters and importers to grow trade, recognising that trade would help grow the

country and subsequently the airline as well,” said Zemedeneh Negatu, managing partner at Ernst & Young (EY), Ethiopia.

Speaking at last week’s International Air Transport Association (Iata) Aviation Day Africa conference in Sandton, he said that the country’s exports were not dependent on commodities but that currently

its greatest export product was aviation services due to the route connectivity it had established.

“The airline also helped grow the Ethiopian flower export industry to what it is

today because of its global route network,” said Negatu. According to Consultancy Africa Intelligence (CAI),

Ethiopia has become the second-largest flower exporter in Africa (after Kenya) with speculations of increased future growth. Export value earned is expected to rise up to US$ 550 million by 2016, said CAI earlier this year.

Negatu noted that

working with other business stakeholders, as well as government, to meet the collective objective of improved trade growth through increased regional, local and international connectivity was one of the keys to an airline’s success.

“Airlines must collaborate to ensure greater regional liberalisation of skies. Africa and emerging Asia offer the greatest trade growth opportunities, yet the SSA region’s intra-Africa trade currently still only amounts to 10-12%,” he said.

Electronic export certificates are now a reality in South Africa with the Perishable Products Export Control Board (PPECB) having completed the first phase of its digital programme.

According to the PPECB’s CEO Stuart Symington, the last of the 600 inspectors

across the country have now been trained and issued with digital tablets ushering in a new era for the organisation where clipboards and pens will no longer be the tools used to issue export certificates.

Addressing the Exporters’ Club Western Cape (ECWC) last week, Symington said the tablet technology rolled

out over the past two years would ultimately transform the PPECB into a far more efficient and effective organisation.

Symington said through access to real-time, accurate information inspectors would be able to get export certificates out far more quickly.

“The technology will

achieve long-term efficiencies that should translate into a more cost-effective service to our customers, but we believe we will also be able to offer a far better customer service,” he said.

Symington said introducing tablet technology had not been a quick and easy process, but with the first phase

now completed the team would start looking into further applications of the technology which would also be rolled out in phases.

A spate of copper and cobalt thefts on the Copperbelt in 2009 led to the establishment of a specialist company responsible for providing security escorts for over 100 trucks a day.

VS Cargo Security has expanded into providing abnormal load escorts and permits throughout Zambia.

“Currently we also handle security for all fuel in transit by rail from South Africa to various destinations in the DRC,” says Sandra Valenza, managing director of VS Cargo.

What started as an “add-on service for clients” has

developed into a fully fledged business on its own.

Security is provided through a combination of vehicles on the road and uniformed security guards in the trucks.

Both are tracked by satellite and monitored around the clock from the VS Cargo control room in Ndola.

Information from the personal tracking device carried by the escort is fed through to the cargo owner to cross-check the data provided by the haulier’s system.

All the vehicles are equipped to provide first response in the event of a

breakdown or accident, and the personnel are trained first aiders.

One of the surprise benefits has been a reduction in transit times, according to Valenza.

“Whenever a driver decides to break from the convoy to, for example, visit friends on the way or to extend his stay at the border we get a call from the escort. In some cases transit times have been halved from 10 to five days,” she says.

Having a uniformed escort in the cab also seems to help speed up transit through road blocks, she adds.– Ed Richardson

At a special ceremony on Thursday last week, the “cutting of the first steel” (the modern day substitute for “laying the first keel section” of yesteryear), took place at Durban’s SA Shipyards.

It marked the start of a R1.4-billion contract awarded by Transnet National Ports Authority (TNPA) for nine state-of-the-art tugboats.

And it is the largest single contract awarded by TNPA to an SA company for the building of harbour craft, according to Tau Morwe, TNPA CE.

The first tug will be launched in November 2015, he added, while the last will be handed over in the first quarter of 2018.These will replace ageing vessels and increase the fleets in the ports of Durban, Richards Bay, Port Elizabeth and Saldanha Bay.

“To meet an almost unprecedented target of building the nine tugboats in just 42 months, they will be built in tandem,” said SA Shipyards CE, Prasheen Maharaj. This will mean five tugs will be under construction at any given time – with varying launch dates.

The new tugs will be the most powerful ever to enter TNPA’s service.

Compared to the older-generation

tugs currently in use, which have a bollard pull* of 40 tonnes and 32.5t, eight of new tugs will have a 70t bollard pull, according to Rufus Lekala, TNPA chief harbour master. At 31 metres long, 11.5m wide and 18m high they are also slightly larger than the existing ones.

“More remarkably,” he added, “the ninth and final tug to be built will be 42m long, 15m wide and have a bollard pull of 100t – matching the most powerful tugs in the world.”

This increased bollard pull – which meets international standards – is designed to handle the increasing size of commercial vessels calling at SA.

There is another move to meet the tight building programme.

The sub-contractors installing electrical systems, engines and propulsion units have established workshops in SA Shipyards’ premises. *The bollard pull is a means of measuring in tonnes the maximum pull that the tug can exert on a stationary ship or object and is a way of understanding the available power of the tug.– Alan Peat

Bribery at border posts is a catch-22 situation for transport operators – if they pay, they get their trucks and goods cleared more quickly. However, the next time they reach the same border post, the price of a bribe will have doubled. If they don’t pay, they can claim the moral high ground, but they are then guaranteed an indefinite delay at a border post or a road block and may lose a client if they don’t make a tight delivery deadline.

The problem

A small transport operator told FTW it was the only way he could retain a competitive edge in an increasingly rates-driven business. “If my drivers don’t pay, there is inevitably some reason why the truck or goods cannot be cleared and then the trucks often have to spend a night or two at a border post where the drivers and goods are vulnerable to other criminal elements such as robbery and even assault,” he said, adding that the price of a bribe was then often a much lower short-term “cost”.

Another person mentioned

his brother, a single operator running a 35-ton truck from South Africa to Zimbabwe, Malawi and Zambia. “As a matter of course, he carries a pile of R20 notes as bribes to pay uniformed people who appear out of nowhere and claim the truck is unroadworthy and is subject to fines running into thousands of rands. He simply pays R40 or R60 to ensure he can continue his journey.” A round trip to Malawi from South Africa could cost an average of R1 000 to R2 000 in bribes (over and above the border gate bribes).

A transporter said the war-torn Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) was the worst offender as all the authorities seemed to be involved in some way. “The selling of receipts in the DRC is also now a lucrative business where drivers can buy a receipt for ‘something’ and offer it as proof to transport company owners.” The operator told FTW that this was difficult to pin down as rules within the Southern African Development Community (SADC) countries changed so often, with little or no notice, that the receipts could well be legitimate.

She said that driver involvement was a major problem as they often claimed for bribes that were not applicable. “We ask them to obtain receipts so we have recourse to fight the issue with the local authorities but often these are refused or they buy false receipts.”

Cross-border transporters often have to push up their rates to compensate for delays because of unpaid bribes or to cover the expense of having to pay a bribe but meet the delivery schedule, said another operator.

The solution?

Cutting off the head of the snake and simply not paying is the answer, say some. But this would only work if everyone worked collectively to do so, otherwise just like the mythical Greek hydra, the snake will continue to grow more heads. “Social problems such as high unemployment have certainly contributed to this as it is considered less risky and certainly easier than a robbery,” noted a clearing agent.

One operator said: “The issue is, who is involved? Is it

just one department or the whole system? Then, we also need to determine which border posts have the worst offenders and start to crack down on them first – either through sting operations or legal recourse.” He believes that the problem is that the industry usually talks around the issue but no-one really talks specifics as they are worried about reprisals.

A transporter mentioned that Botswana was one of the few SADC countries where operators could lodge complaints around bribery and corruption practices and the authorities actually took action. She noted that the mining and other global companies – that transport large cargo volumes through

Africa – have corporate policies in place to deal with bribery and corruption and will often assist their logistics suppliers to deal with issues that arise. “Having a good, honest and open relationship with your client does make a difference.” She added that the flip side of this was that despite the policies, often the client’s own employees were involved and would demand bribes for trucks to be loaded faster or even let through the gates.

Another operator noted that their solution was simply not to let drivers travel with large amounts of cash but rather with value items such as cool drinks, cigarettes or canned goods. “It is a more affordable and fairer option.”

No stone has been left unturned to ensure South African fruit is citrus black spot (CBS) free.

After a consignment of lemons with CBS was intercepted at the Port of Rotterdam in July, local authorities stepped up risk management processes and implemented even more stringent measures. With the end of the citrus season fast approaching, hopes are high these measures will hold up and that no further cases will be detected.

According to Stuart Symington, CEO of the

Perishable Products Export Control Board (PPECB), the stricter measures were implemented at the request of the European Union which has placed a limit on the number of contaminated exports allowed. Should the limit be exceeded, all South African citrus will be banned from the EU.

“There is much at stake if we do not get this right,” Symington told FTW on the sidelines of a meeting organised by the Exporters’ Club Western Cape recently.

While the Western Cape is free of CBS, a local fruit

exporter said it was a very disruptive situation. “It is very stressful for everyone in the citrus industry – whether you are in a CBS area or not. It’s imperative that the issue of CBS be sorted out once and for all. We can’t just have additional measures being introduced. It comes with major costs.”

It is a sentiment echoed by role-players across the board. Earlier this year the Citrus Growers’ Association (CGA) said efforts were ongoing to meet the stringent EU requirements. – Liesl Venter

When it comes to training, course accreditation is key – and that’s particularly critical in the field of Incoterms.

It was clearly a consideration for South African Breweries which recently chose Global Maritime Learning Solutions to train its staff. GMLS’s Mark Goodger, who delivered the training, is accredited by the ICC Paris, renewing this accreditation on an annual basis.

International Chamber of Commerce president Pat Corbin, who handed out the certificates to the successful candidates recently, stressed

the importance of using only accredited trainers.

“There are currently only 21 Master Trainers globally who have been trained by the ICC in Paris,” he said.

The Incoterms rules, or International Commercial Terms, are a series of pre-defined commercial terms published by the ICC.

These terms are widely used in international commercial transactions or procurement processes. A series of three-letter trade terms related to common contractual sales practices, the Incoterms rules are

intended primarily to clearly communicate the tasks, costs, and risks and obligations associated with the transportation and delivery of goods.

overall performance to an LPI score of 3.43, SA had fallen 11 places from 23rd spot in the bank’s 2012 LPI study.

Admittedly, we were the top performing African country this year. But, given the quality of the opposition, that’s a limited claim to fame.

In sub-Saharan Africa, Malawi in 73rd place, Kenya (74), Nigeria (75), Rwanda (80) and Namibia (93) were the top performers after SA. The worst performing sub-Saharan country was the Democratic Republic of Congo (159) – or second last in the LPI league to worst-performer Somalia.

SA also soundly beat the Middle East and North Africa region, where the highest dimensional score was 2.93 for timeliness compared to our 3.88. And its average LPI score was 2.50 compared to our 3.43.

There’s little point in matching SA scores to the top-notchers in the LPI. Top scorer Germany, for example, has all of its dimensional scores bar one (“international shipments”)

well over 4 – with its average LPI 4.12.

But it may be better to rate SA’s rankings against the other semi-developed nations in the Brics (Brazil, Russia, India, China and SA) consortium.

In this, SA is only marginally below China. And indeed, we beat them in “logistics competence” and “timeliness”.

The comparative LPI scores were 3.53 for China and 3.43 for SA. And dimensionally the Chinese scores were (SA’s in brackets): “customs”

3.21 (3.11); “infrastructure” 3.67 (3.20); “international shipments” 3.50 (3.45); “logistics competence” 3.46 (3.62); tracking & tracing 3.50 (3.30); “timeliness” 3.87 (3.88).

India, Brazil and Russia were all below SA – with Brazil and Russia scoring mostly in the 2s.

In the WB report, titled ‘Connecting to Compete 2014: Trade Logistics in the Global Economy’, SA is noted to be an “over-performing non-high-income” economy. In this, at 34th LPI spot, we are ranked with Malaysia (25), China (28), Thailand (35), Vietnam (48) and India (54).

The latest restrictions in the air cargo transport of lithium batteries have raised a number of compliance problems for electronic goods manufacturers.

So much so that one of these, SA’s Trolley Scan, has had to completely redesign and rebuild its range of transponders.

According to MD Mike Marsh, the original International Air Transport Association (Iata)/International Civil Aviation Organisation (Icao) lithium battery

restrictions excluded very small batteries. But from April 1 this year, the rulings added these “button batteries”.

“Since then it has become extremely

difficult to airfreight any electronic item that contains any form of battery,” he told FTW. “And remember that these are long-life but very

small watch batteries that are built inside the transponders in manufacture to power up the devices for five years.”

But now, Marsh added,

any battery that uses lithium is marked for special attention and regarded as a hazardous cargo, and is not allowed in some countries (like the US) to be shipped on an aircraft that carries passengers.

“And, with the goods being classified as hazardous cargo, the shipping costs are much higher than normal.”

So Trolley Scan has redesigned the battery-assisted transponders in its product range to allow access to the batteries from outside the transponder.

Said Marsh: “This is not an ideal solution as the waterproofing of the transponder has been compromised but it does allow the equipment to be delivered.”

New transponder addresses lithium issue

positions SA has fallen compared to 2012.

“South African National Roads Agency Ltd (Sanral) has committed to working closely with law enforcement authorities to address criminal activities on the freeways in Cape Town.

While the company is continuing to repair fencing and street lighting cabling vandalised along its routes, it’s an ongoing problem, says communications manager Vusi Mona.

“All Sanral pedestrian

bridges on the N1, N2 and R300 near Cape Town already have caged enclosures,” he said.

“We have also experimented with vandal-proof fencing on top of the median concrete barrier on the R300 to deter pedestrians crossing this high speed road – and we believe this will also deter criminal activity to some degree. The fence on top of the centre barrier proofing has been successful and we

will continue to invest in such sustainable solutions,” he said.

The company operates more than 240 CCTV cameras from the Transport Management Centre (TMC) in Goodwood on a 24/7 basis, primarily on the lookout for traffic-related incidents. It has over the past six months detected at least 150 criminal-related activities that have been reported to law enforcement authorities such as SAPS, Metro Police or Traffic services.
