DP World Maputo has developed and implemented a new supply-chain solution that provides Southern African importers of fertiliser and similar commodities with an option to use the Maputo Corridor. 

The new solution presents an opportunity for South African fertiliser importers to take advantage of the high trucking capacity returning empty to South Africa, explains DP World Maputo.

Together with the Maputo Intermodal Container Depot (MICD), DP World Maputo has implemented a solution where transit import containers are unloaded at DP World Maputo’s container terminal, the cargo de-stuffed and cross docked into waiting tipper trucks at MICD. 

It is then moved in bond to South Africa, with final clearance done en route at Lebombo/Komatipoort, and moved directly to the customer’s door for final delivery.

DP World Maputo has the concession to manage, develop and operate the container terminal at the Port of Maputo, in Mozambique.

The Port of Maputo is already an established export gateway for various bulk mineral commodities, currently delivered from South Africa.
