As the Cape Town Container Terminal prepares for the 2023/24 deciduous fruit season, it has commenced engagements with key stakeholders, including the Summer Fruit Industry and the Western Cape Government. On Friday, 01 September 2023, a collaborative planning session was held between TPT and its key stakeholders in Paarl to discuss seasonal readiness plans.
The seasonal readiness plan includes critical equipment availability as well as the procuring of additional equipment for both the waterside and landside operations. Accelerating equipment replacement, capital spares supply and continuously leveraging on Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) partnerships to shorten lead times to repair equipment are some of the plans currently in place to ensure redundancy throughout the season.
