7 SADC CHALLENGES The SADC region is regarded as the next growth frontier due to its extensive minerals wealth, growth in consumer populations and relatively good infrastructure, road in particular:- Key challenges hinders its growth and trade remain strained; Poor infrastructure, low density across transport networks, inefficient border processes and fragmented regulatory environments continue to dog it; Much of rail and port infrastructure was built for resource extraction rather than to facilitate trade; Landlocked countries within the region require efficient transport links to and from the sea in order to enjoy competitive prices for landed goods and exports to global markets; Most ports within the region currently operate near capacity and experience delays due to poor integration with other transport modes and slow clearance processes; and The SADC region must attain the goal of becoming a seamless, cost-effective, fully integrated and internationally competitive region with appropriate and substantial investments in road, rail and ports to secure the future of the region. 6

8 KEY INTERVENTIONS REQUIRED RESPONSE TO CHALLENGES Ports to improve Inter-Regional Trade Development of SADC ports that connect to the world regions growing maritime trade Development of ports that are efficient transhipment hubs connected to rail Terminal and Warehousing facilities Distribution centres for product to reach markets in the region Lowering inventory costs Working together to satisfy customers to reduce the cost of doing business to improve regional competitiveness 7

10 Geographical context Global context SA s distance from international markets results in high maritime transport costs SA well placed to service Southern African and most BRICS shipping trade routes Opportunity to position SA as global transshipment hub focusing on selected trade routes Transnet Long-term Planning Framework 2012 Regional context SA well positioned to serve African east and west coasts by sea SA s rail network provides strategic and common-gauge connectivity to neighbouring SADC countries Regional partnerships will stimulate and sustain regional growth National context Gauteng industrial and mining area remains regional production and consumption hub despite distance from nearest ports Transnet s key role is to assist in economic growth through providing appropriate, cost-effective and efficient port, rail and pipeline infrastructure and operations Continued emphasis on alignment with New Growth Path, management of Carbon footprint, private-sector participation, and job creation 9 9

11 Industry trends Globalisation Trade Patterns Road/Rail Ports Sustainability Increased international freight flows a fundamental component of recent changes in global, regional and local economic transport systems Evidence of recession in small reduction in freight tonnage handled Some evidence of recovery from the debilitating effects of the past few difficult years (from an economic and trade point of view 2007: Industrial and Commercial Bank of China buys 20% stake in Standard Bank (US$5,4 billion) - China s largest-ever foreign investment 2009: China-South Africa trade reaches $17,9 billion - China becomes South Africa s largest trading partner 2010: India-South Africa trade reaches US$11,1 billion - increases to US$15 billion by : 26 African countries create a US$1 trillion Southern/Eastern/Ce ntral African free trade area Road/rail tonnage split almost static Only profitable rail infrastructure being investing in - large components, notably rural branch lines, not used and becoming increasingly dilapidated Worldwide trend toward road reversing as rail becomes more competitive as a sustainable transportation mode Single wagon business being replaced by hub-tohub Intermodal solutions becoming increasingly important (especially in manufacturing sector) Worldwide trend towards greater specialisation, centralisation, economies of scale, larger vessels and larger parcel sizes Current upward trend in average size of container-carriers ( DWT) and bulkers ( DWT) Growing international over-ocean trade to 11 billion tones pa by 2020 at 3% pa yearon-year growth rate International shipbuilding peaked in 2010 at 96 million tons (previous peak in 1975 at 36 million tons) Supply-chains used to develop and sustain competitive advantage Increasing pressure to transform logistics to meet greening the requirements Impact of logistics on climate change more topical because of realisation of immediacy and magnitude of global warming 10 10

20 Market share rail alignment process What is suitable freight for rail? Longer distances Short-haul distribution is more efficient on road High volumes Rail is a bulk mover Big parcels in a single move Commodity type Typically bulk minerals/heavy goods/containers Corridor effect Concentrated corridors attract more traffic Road friendly Road or rail Rail friendly Setting the ideal rail vs road market share split is a fundamental driver for future rail demand 19
