The company’s performance so far this year has fallen short of expectations due to a number of factors hampering operations. The company is implementing its Reinvent for Growth Strategy aimed at repositioning the business, focusing on key commodity segments and engaging partners where it makes sense for the business.

As the custodian of ports, rail and pipelines, Transnet’s objective is to ensure a globally competitive freight system that enables sustained growth and diversification of the country’s economy.
