  3. Northern Region Grapefruit Production Overview

  4. Northern Region Grapefruit Rail Volume Overview Letsitele / Hoedspruit / Malelane to Durban 50% GF Production for Japan & other markets

  5. Northern Region Valencia Production Overview

  6. Northern Region Valencia Rail Volume Overview

  7. Northern Region Total Rail Volume Overview Service 2 20% of citrus volume to Durban = 5,500 road trucks

  8. Northern Region Break-bulk Rail Overview Valencia 2 Wk 25 - 36 Grapefruit 1 Wk 17 - 25 • Grapefruit Rail Service 1 Wk 17 – 25 • Valencia Rail Service 2 Wk 26 – 36

  9. Durban Port Rail Siding Overview

  10. Break-bulk Rail Summary • Costs • Rail costs are higher than necessary due to rail being facilitated by 3rd parties. • If growing regions consolidated rail efforts and managed a rail account directly with TFR they could reduce transport costs significantly. • Alternatively CGA rail account • Service • Rail to Durban only works well to FPT, 333 Logistics and MFT facilities. Other facilities are too far out. • Japan and Russia volume considered ‘rail niche’ cargo. Homogeneous and single receiving facility. • Grapefruit rail service 1: Letsitele, Hoedspruit and Malelane to 333 Logistics. • Valencia rail service 2: Letsitele and Polokwane Hub to FPT, 333Logistics and MFT. • Russia consolidation from Letsitele and Polokwane Hub to FPT. • All Russia fruit is consolidated from multiple packhouses and railed to FPT.

  11. Break-bulk Rail Cost vs. Road

  12. Northern Region Container Rail via Polokwane Overview

  13. Northern Region Container Rail via Polokwane Overview • Operational Benefits: • Exporter can consolidate from multiple suppliers – not restricted to a single supplier. • Accessible to the greater northern Limpopo and Zimbabwe regions. • Better equipment and better efficiency can be achieved. • EU EN 24hr rule will hinder the current Letsitele train as shipping lines will not release empty containers without a booking reference. • Citrus can be accumulated and bookings done based on stock. • Container loading and break-bulk done from the same facility. • Where are we? • Addressed with TFR and plan meetings with Limpopo Dept. Of Roads and Transport. • Steering committee to oversee logistics tender process.
