FREIGHT & TRADING WEEKLY

Mandatory weighing of all containers at port of departure before they are stowed aboard a vessel for export is the latest proposal from the World Shipping Council to address the perennial problem of overweight containers.

The Council, which represents the world’s leading container shipping lines, is keen to reach agreement on the issue at the International Maritime Organisation’s 89th meeting in May so that a proposal can be introduced to amend the SOLAS convention and make weighing of containers

a legal requirement.But while the WSC

believes the weighing of every full export container before vessel loading is feasible and practical, Transnet Port Terminals’ GM strategy, Paulo Froes, believes that it will demand significant financial investment from the ports, with no benefit, and could in addition impact on productivity.

While there is no available data that reliably indicates how many containers are overweight, the problem is significant, according to the WSC. “Some carriers report that it is not uncommon for actual total cargo weight aboard ship to be 3-7% higher than the declared weight,” a spokesman said.

Which is why the association has proposed that the SOLAS Convention be amended.

“The United States by regulation requires the weighing of every export

loaded container before vessel loading,” a WSC spokesman said. “And no problems have been reported with respect to the ability of marine terminals to comply with this requirement.”

In South Africa a task team appointed by the Department of Transport has been looking into the issue, says Froes, but with broader responsibility than the sea leg.

“Because around 75% of containers are carried from Gauteng to the ports by road, the DoT is keen to prevent road damage from overweight containers and has been working on a system to weigh containers before and after loading on the truck.

“But it’s almost impossible to do,” says Froes.

“The port authorities are not privy when the container is loaded on the truck, and when it comes off the truck

Negotiations between the National Bargaining Council for the Road Freight and Logistics Industry (NBCRFLI) and unions are at a sensitive stage after a conciliation meeting was held on December 15 last year with no success.

“We are very committed to resolving the issues at hand and taking the negotiations further,” said Magretia Brown of the NBCRFLI. “We have correspondence from the unions saying they are also committed to this process.”

Fears that workers will go on strike if their demands are not met cannot however be ruled out. “I don’t want to speculate about the possibility of a strike,” said Brown.

Unions are demanding a 10% increase to the 7.5% offer on the table, but several other factors are reported to be negatively affecting negotiations.

Implementation of the Administrative Adjudication of Road Traffic Offences (Aarto) Act, which has now been pending for months, will happen sometime in 2011.

This is the only word on the matter from the Department of Transport which remains mum on when exactly it plans to implement the new Act that will introduce a demerit point and fine system for traffic offences.

Originally due for implementation on November 1 last year, the date was postponed to April 1 this year due to systems and people not being ready for the big change.

The change of tack by the DoT is contrary to the Aarto website that on January 6 stated “there are 84 days left until demerit points come into force according to the most recent re-announcement of the Department of Transport”.

According to Logan Maistry,

spokesman for the Minister of Transport, no definite date has been set for the implementation of the new Act.

“The Act will definitely be implemented this year, but not necessarily on April 1. The minister will make a public announcement about the date of implementation in due course,” he told FTW last week.

Various reasons exist for the delay ranging from problems with communications to budgetary constraints and even the training of people to enable them to use the system correctly.

Currently being piloted in Johannesburg and Tshwane, the Act was enacted in 1998. The new system is aimed at reducing road traffic fatalities in South Africa – among the highest in the world.

The Aarto Act seeks to tackle this problem by imposing hefty fines coupled with demerit points, which will in some instances lead to the suspension of driving licences.

Aarto implementation postponed – again

Just over a year since officially opening its doors, Ehrenreich Logistics is upbeat about the prospects for 2011 after a challenging but encouraging launch year.

“As a new player we have done very well,” says CEO Peter Ehrenreich who set up the company and was joined by fellow directors Nadia Govender and Shawn Simonhoff, both of whom are ex-Maersk colleagues with diversified experience

in shipping and freight forwarding. Simonhoff heads up the Cape Town branch while Govender and Ehrenreich are based in Johannesburg.

“We are growing where many well-established companies are not and added customers throughout last year,” says Ehrenreich who is a well-known figure in the local shipping industry. He arrived in South Africa in 1999 as Maersk SA MD and subsequently headed up Safmarine’s Asian/Australian

operation, based in Singapore. He resigned from the AP Moller-Maersk group in 2008 after 25 years.

It was during his stint with Maersk SA that he developed an affinity for South Africa – a country to which he knew he would one day return.

With his extensive experience and contacts in Asia – 11 years in all – it’s not surprising that China is one of the company’s major focus areas followed by India, the Middle East, Benelux countries, Italy, Spain and Africa.

“We have very good global partners and outsource only to the best,” says Govender, “and that’s how we make sure that we provide the best price and product.”

While Ehrenreich remains optimistic about continued growth, he believes 2011 will be another very tough year.

“I always use unemployment figures as the benchmark for growth, and with US unemployment having just gone up to 9.8% and the Irish,

Spanish and other European economies struggling, the market is unlikely to increase significantly.”

But he is confident that the company has the right credentials in place.

“We are one of the few Level 1 BBBEE companies in the industry, a status we work hard to maintain – and that opens many doors.”

Ehrenreich is also intent on maintaining a diversified customer base offering a mix of air and sea import and export solutions ranging from the export of fruit out of Cape Town and mining and minerals from the likes of the DRC to import cargoes from the Far East, often using South Africa as a springboard into the rest of the continent.

When it comes to dealing with the East, trust is a crucial factor, says Ehrenreich.

“We have strong alliances with China which is why many freight agents trust us with their Far East cargo – and it’s a market that is likely to expand.”

Foreign investors are increasingly keen to have a ‘slice of the action’ in South Africa’s winelands – evident in the purchase for an undisclosed sum by US tycoon Charles Banks of the Mulderbosch estate

in Stellenbosch’s Koelenhof area.

This, says Wines of South Africa spokesman Andre Morgenthal, augurs well for the South African wine industry.

Banks, a former president of CSI Capital Management, renowned for handling

investments of millionaire sportsmen (and women) in such spheres as basketball and baseball and also those of movie and music stars, heads up California-based Terroir Capital, the company behind the Mulderbosch purchase.

Wosa says on its website

foreign owners/stakeholders in the country’s wine estates stand at 111 – about 16% of the total – including German, French, American Dutch and Swiss, while new interest is being shown by the well-heeled in Congo, Israel, Russia and Singapore.

Some of the better-known industry personalities with a foothold in South Africa are Anne Contreau-Huchon of France’s famous cognac family who bought Morgenhof about ten years ago, and Mary Eliane de Lencquesaing, former owner of Chateau Pichon.

Tariffs are expected to drop by 20% on “at least” 70% of products exported and subject to duty between countries in Africa, Asia and Latin America.

The signatories, representing 1.9 billion people – or almost a third of the total population of the planet – are Cuba, Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay (members of the Common Market of the South), as well as Egypt, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Morocco and South Korea.

The commitment was made in December at the Sao Paolo round of the Global System of Trade Preferences (GSTP) agreement talks.

There are 43 parties to the GSTP.

The outlook for the mining industry this year is positive, according to Chris Scott of Customs Services, which has for the past 25 years specialised in providing logistics for the import and export of mining and earthmoving equipment.

The best business barometer, in his view, is tender activity.

“A lot of this business is on tender – and it’s a long process before these tenders reach fruition. We’ve seen a significant increase in the number of tenders for which we’re supplying information and have also seen a lot of capital equipment moving into the country – which is a positive indicator for the year ahead.”

Customs Services imports predominantly from the USA, South America, Europe, China and the UK, Export destinations include Botswana, Zimbabwe, Zambia and Mozambique.

And while the first six months of 2010 registered a significant downturn in mining-related business, this trend has already reversed. “We handle a lot of

business for one of the major mining companies and when the crunch hit they reduced their import budget by 50% – and that filtered through in the first half of last year. But by the second half of the year volumes were already on an upward trajectory.”

Issues like the lack of breakbulk capacity is just one of the challenges facing the industry, while locally the challenge is always the inland leg from the ports to the mines. “We outsource abnormal road transport to the experts because the cargo is worth millions of rand – and skilled providers are few and far between.”

According to Scott a number of local manufacturers are making headway in markets like China, which is importing SA-manufactured mining equipment.

“We have a number of orders on the books and can see that the mining and earthmoving industries are picking up. We may not be back to where were two years ago but there’s no doubt that it looks very promising.”

Marking the official conclusion of their partnership alliance, Tim Frear, director – BDP Global Network Services, visited South Africa last month to sign the agreement which saw South African shipping firm Turners Shipping become a member of the BDP global alliance.

Signing the agreement on behalf of Turners Shipping was Turner

Group MD Conrad Cochrane-Murray.

“BDP International is the largest hazchem and petrochem logistics service provider in the world, with an 80% share of the market,” said Frear. “The choice of Turners Shipping was logical given the company’s experience and expertise in that market.”

Tender activity bodes well for mining industry uptick

South Africa’s impending accession to the ranks of BRIC, an economic coalition of top emerging nations China, India, Russia and Brazil, has become a hot debating potato. And caught up in the midst is economist Jim O’Neill, chairman of Goldman Sachs Asset Management, and the man who coined the ‘BRIC’ acronym a decade ago.

His reaction has been downright negative in arguing against South Africa’s acceptance on the grounds of a relatively small economy (US$285 billion or R1.8 trillion) in comparison with the four sitting members, a much smaller population (about 50 million) and tepid GDP growth of about 3% this year.

That said, South Africa is

the economic powerhouse of Africa which is clearly a major factor behind South Africa’s acceptance.

The proponents of the idea suggest South Africa, the world’s 31st largest economy (World Bank 2009), is a ‘natural fit’ to go along with emerging nations such as Brazil and Russia while the negative camp, O’Neill included, says Nigeria is rather the country with ‘real potential’.

Marvin Zonis, professor emeritus at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business, sees the Chinese move as part and parcel of a keen desire to enhance its presence in Africa.

Trade between China and Africa stood at US$115 billion at the end of November and is tipped to reach a record high this year.

This led analysts to suggest it would only be a matter of time before an African country was asked to join the ranks of BRIC, given such impressive statistics as sub-Saharan Africa’s total economy growing from US$322 billion in 2000 to US$931 billion in 2008 (Source: IMF).

Standard Bank data predict BRIC’s African trade will have increased three-fold, to US$530 billion, from the current US$150 billion by 2015 and that BRIC’s share of Africa’s total trade will increase from the current one-fifth to one-third in the next five years.

Moreover, BRIC’s foreign investment stock in South Africa will swell to more than US$150 billion (from the current approximately US$60 billion) over the same period.

Figures from the Association of Asia Pacific Airlines (AAPA) proudly boast that Asian air traffic results showed continuing robust demand in air freight for November.

International air cargo traffic demand, expressed in freight tonne kilometres (FTK), registered 10.6% growth to 5 822-million FTKs in November compared to the same month in the previous year. A similar increase in offered freight capacity left the average international air cargo load factor for Asia Pacific carriers unchanged at 70.7% for the month.

In the 11 months ended

November 2010, AAPA carriers witnessed a dramatic 26.3% growth in international air cargo volumes to 58 319-million FTKs – driven by a sharp rebound in global trade.

AAPA director general, Andrew Herdman, said: “Asia Pacific-based airlines have led the industry recovery this year, benefiting from robust demand from and within Asia.

“Air cargo rebounded very strongly this year, although the reported monthly growth rates are beginning to moderate as supply chain inventories are rebalanced.”

Independent consolidator CFR Freight has set a definitive growth path for its airfreight division in 2011.

“Imports will be our key focus,” says airfreight GM Dave Graham.

And the foundation stones are already in place.

Inbound capacity over the past year has been at a premium for the entire industry, which is why CFR has taken a decision to enter into block space agreements (BSAs) on several key routes in order to guarantee space to its clients.

“Existing consols coming out of the US are up and running nicely but two areas of focus will be Europe and China,” says Graham.

“We have contracted BSAs out of Amsterdam

and our Air Cargo Group partner, Groupair, has put in place a whole trucking network throughout Western Europe supported by offices in Amsterdam and Brussels. It’s not purely an Amsterdam product but rather a Western Europe product offering a named-day service from Amsterdam into South Africa,” says Graham.

“The first week we floated this we brought in five maindeck pallets,” according to Johannesburg branch manager Dave Gurney, which is exceptional.

“We have contracted on the Martinair/KLM service once a week and SAA twice a week, providing allocated capacity three times a week.”

But China, says Graham, is the single biggest focus

for next year. “We have a very strong partnership with NAC/Shipco and they are focused on two lanes out of China – South Africa and Australia.

“And because they are run by Europeans there’s a cultural understanding and communication.

“The Chinese don’t understand the need in our market for predictable rates that are valid for an extended period of time. Conversely South Africans don’t understand that the Chinese airfreight market is like a commodity – that rates fluctuate virtually on a daily basis. But because we are dealing with a European-run organisation, they are dealing with the complexities of the Chinese market and we are able to offer extended validity all-in rates out of China.”

This month (January) will see the implementation of additional services to complement the existing space on Thai and Singapore Airways.

“Our service from Shanghai will extend to include Hong Kong – and through our partner on that side we have origins in all major Chinese centres feeding into Shanghai and Hong Kong so we have an established network feeding southern China into Hong Kong and mainland China into Shanghai.”

According to Graham, the feedback from customers has been very encouraging. “A lot of forwarders have already come on board and we’re not just signing up Johannesburg clients, but Cape Town and Durban as well.”

The company’s current

business mix is 70/30 in favour of exports. “We certainly won’t be ignoring exports, but in light of the stronger rand we are determined to turn that ratio around and expand our import market,” he said.

The word is that financial markets are continuing to view airline financial prospects positively – and airline shares are growing in stature as financial prospects improve.

That saw shares up 28% in 2010, according to the International Air Transport Association (Iata) airlines financial monitor for the year up to November-December.

Capacity growth is running ahead of traffic – especially in the cargo market – and fleet expansion is to accelerate.

Supply-demand conditions are finely balanced in air travel markets, said Iata.

Airlines have added passenger capacity at an annualised rate of 7.8%

over the 11 months to November, compared to an annualised growth in traffic of 7.2%.

The equation is more lopsided for cargo – capacity up 7.9% on a traffic increase of 5.6%. Having said that, freight capacity is still 2% below what it was prior to the recession, according to Iata.

There were a further 94 new aircraft deliveries in November – similar to average for the year so far, of just under 100 each month this year. Almost 50 aircraft were removed from storage during the month. Some of that number will have been scrapped but the bulk will have returned to service.

With 1 400+ deliveries scheduled for 2011 (just under 120 per month)

an acceleration of fleet expansion lies ahead. And aircraft utilisation rates returning to more normal levels will likely further push up overall rates of capacity growth in the year to come.

Another detrimental point for the cargo business is that the faster rate of capacity increase has put a dent in the freight load factor.

“After tracking 3-4 percentage points higher than 2007 levels in the first half of 2010, the load factor has fallen back,” Iata told FTW. “However, at still about 1.5 percentage points higher than 2007 levels, this is still considered a relatively high level of capacity utilisation by historical standards.

The immediate forecast is also negative. With

growth in air freight moving into a slower post-restocking phase, the association feels

that freight load factors could come under further downward pressure in months ahead.

Exporters need to steel themselves as the strong rand is not going anywhere for the foreseeable future.

The rand is expected to hold firm for at least another six months, says Nicola Weimar, senior economist with Nedbank. “It is very difficult to predict the trends at this stage but all indications are that the rand, which is no doubt overvalued at present, will hold firm. We are expecting a weakness towards the end of the year.”

She said while this was good news for consumers the same could not be said for producers and exporters. “If you serve the entire pipeline of consumers then you will definitely benefit from this situation. It has also played a major role in containing the inflation rate.”

Weimar said due to the strong rand South Africans had for example not felt any effect of global food prices shooting up.

Economists for both Standard Bank and Nedbank remain conservative in their estimates of GDP growth. With Standard Bank projections around 2.9%, Weimar says that Nedbank is forecasting growth to be in the region of 2.8%, only slightly higher than the 2.7% of 2010.

“The key factor is the world economy that still poses a lot of risk. The recovery definitely started to slow down towards the end of 2010, especially in Europe, which is still a significant export market for South Africa.”

She said it was mainly due to the worries over Europe that growth margins were kept conservative at this stage.

Although a troublesome US congressional bill on screening all cargo and express package aircraft looks as though it’s dead in the water, this shouldn’t give the message that aviation security is in any way slackening off.

According to Bob Garbett, MD of Professional Risk & Asset Management and chairman of the Business Aviation Association of Southern Africa (Baasa), cargo security in SA is a matter for everyday focus.

With our Part 108 aviation security legislation, Garbett added, we have an ideal air cargo screening procedure – with an integration of physically checking cargo consignments with the inspectors using the likes of X-ray (or even more applicably, he told FTW, trained bomb-sniffer dogs) and the security procedure of having “known

cargo consignors and consignees”.The contentious US congressional

bill is the Air Cargo Security Act for 100% screening of all cargo and package express carriers, and it came in the wake of the foiled Yemeni bomb plot.

It was supported by Massachusetts Democratic Congressman Edward Markey – the author of 2009 legislation on screening of all cargo on passenger flights – while critics described it as a “rather typical knee-jerk reaction”.

But, say international press reports, the bill died on the order paper as the 111th Congress adjourned. And – with control passing to Republicans from Democrats – there is little chance of it being revived.

The Air Cargo Security Act was referred to the House Homeland Security Committee where it went no further, and it is now considered past history.

With Mediterranean Shipping Company having increased the capacity of its Europe-SA service by deploying the two 8 000-TEU containerships – MSC Maeva and MSC Lucy – for the first time on the trade route, the question doing the rounds is: Are the MSC big ships here to stay?

When the Port of Ngqura was being built – and Transnet was talking about the intention of marketing it as a transhipment hub for mega container ships possibly serving SA and other trades which bypass southern Africa – it was debated whether any of the lesser trades (like SA itself) would ever justify such giants. It was felt that there were infrastructure and market constraints on the sheer size that would call in SA.

But, soon after the first SA docking of the MSC Maeva in Durban in November, the biggest ship in the Hamburg Sud fleet – the 7 100-TEU capacity Santa Clara sailing the Asia-SA-East Coast South America trade – also started calls in Port Elizabeth and Durban. And finally, with the

addition of the MSC Lucy, time seems to be telling a different story on constraints on very large container ships (VLCS) in SA.

However, some doubt was cast on the MSC contribution to the issue.

International freight reports indicated that the two 8 000-TEU boxships had been displaced from the carrier’s East-West loops by the introduction of 14 000-TEU ultra large container ships (ULCS) – and were looking for a new home.

But would that be SA? “It is not yet known if these 8 000-TEU assignments are only temporary or whether they are part of a long term plan,” said a report by Alphaliner.

Glenn Delve, marketing director of MSC in Durban, told FTW we could put our money on the ships being here to stay.

“It’s definitely a long-term plan,” he added.

Industries can make a difference in fighting crime if they work together to set norms and standards for themselves.

This was the message from forensic investigator Bakkies Buitendach of FRG Forensic Solutions at the fist Fraud Forum organised by the Road Freight Association (RFA) in Johannesburg recently.

Buitendach told delegates there was much power in companies sharing information with each other be it about crimes that had occurred or even which employees to avoid.

“In a forum you as an association can set norms and standards that you all follow. It can be as simple as deciding what the specific requirements are to enter your yards, or as complex as developing a database including all aspects of crime and fraud. This would range from how much diesel has been stolen, who are bad drivers, what losses have

been incurred due to pilferage and theft to where the hijackings are taking place and what the modus operandi is. The power is in your hands.”

He said the major advantage criminals had was knowledge. “They know your soft spots and targets before they pounce. If you share your experiences you are improving your – own knowledge base – and knowledge is power.”

He said it was important to create an industry benchmark of sorts when it came to dealing with crime. “In other words, what is acceptable for you as an industry when it comes to your drivers – what are the requirements before employing someone. Instead of each company doing their own

thing, if you set an industry benchmark you are already improving the standard of drivers employed.”

Citing the example of a truck hijacked in Germiston, Buitendach said after looking at the docket it became clear the driver had been involved and had actually handed over the cargo to the criminals. “No system is fool-proof and it is therefore important that you as industry take control and ownership of your businesses and work together to bring about change.”

He said while many people considered the SAPS incapable, it was important to rather nurture relationships with investigators and to bring them on board by including them in association discussion.

“A forum like this is ideal for you to get to know the police by inviting them to attend. Work with them rather than against them.”

According to Sharmini Naidoo, RFA CEO, the fraud forum is intended to become a regular

feature on the RFA calendar. “We believe that it is important to have a forum such as this where we can facilitate discussion not just about fraud, but crimes in general that affect the businesses of our members.”

The opening up by Mediterranean Shipping Company (MSC) of a West Africa feeder service in February, connecting ports in Liberia and Sierra Leone to the Ivory Coast, will also benefit the SA-West Africa service, according to marketing director Glenn Delve.

The dedicated feeder will deploy one vessel every 10 days to provide a port rotation of San Pedro (Ivory Coast), Monrovia (Liberia), Freetown (Sierra Leone) and San Pedro.

It will connect San Pedro (where MSC also has an office) to the transhipment ports of Las Palmas and Valencia.

And Las Palmas is not only a hub for European cargo to-and-from Africa, Delve added, but also for SA cargo bound to-and-from Europe and West Africa.

Delve told FTW that the latest news released from MSC in Geneva was that the shipping line planned to initially use OBT Shipping as its agent for both Liberia and Sierra Leone, and to later “establish MSC agency offices in both countries”.

Following the appointment of Mafika Mkwanazi to the Board of Transnet, Xpanse Investments recently confirmed his resignation as the director of all boards of the Mediterranean Shipping Company (MSC) and its subsidiaries where he was representing the BEE company. Mkwanazi served MSC for six years.

Sello Rasethaba, who is currently an

executive director at MSC, will take over Mkwanazi’s role as the director of all boards at MSC,” Captain Salvatore Sarno, MSC board chairman told FTW.

“Mkwanazi’s leadership has set the tone for growth within our organisation and we certainly look forward to working with him as the chairman of Transnet’s board,” said Sarno.

When purchasing consumer goods one will notice that many of these are sourced from overseas suppliers. It is often the case that the imported product is cheaper than the locally produced product.

If the local manufacturers wish to remain or become competitive, they need to ensure that they make the most of the mechanisms put in place to protect them from being out-priced by imported goods.

For example, where justified and on application, the International Trade Administration Commission (Itac) will impose anti-dumping or countervailing duties on certain imported goods. They may also increase the customs duties on the imported goods in question.

A further mechanism is

the South African Bureau of Standards which will prevent certain cheap, unsafe goods from entering the market.

On the other hand, certain categories of goods may attract a high rate of duty, increasing the price paid for the goods by the often cash-strapped consumer. As a particular rate of duty may have been in place for a considerable period of time, the rate would be based on the circumstances at the time of imposition. These circumstances may have changed. For example, the local manufacturing industry may no longer be in a position to supply the local market with the volumes or quality required. In such an instance, it may be possible to apply to Itac to have the rate of duty decreased.

Another example would be

that the imported goods fall within a general tariff heading covering a broad category of goods. There may not be a specific tariff subheading in place catering for the goods in question. In this instance, Itac could be approached for the creation of an additional subheading which would not attract customs duty.

A further option is to utilise an existing rebate item catered for in the Schedules to the Customs and Excise Act 91 of 1964. If the process in question is not covered by an existing rebate item, one could always apply to Itac for the creation of a new rebate item.

Since the market environment is a dynamic one, all role-players must ensure that they remain competitive by fully utilising the tools at their disposal.

Protecting local goods from cheaper imports By Ed Richardson

International seaborne trade contracted by 4.5% in 2009 – putting the industry at below 2007 levels, after cresting the wave in 2008, according to Unctad’s Review of Maritime Transport 2010.

The United Nations Conference on Trade and Development 2010 review estimates that total seaborne trade during 2009 was 7.84-billion tons.

Global recovery is proving slower than that which followed previous recessions, and is subject to numerous uncertainties and to the fragile global economic conditions, the study says.

Seaborne trade in dry bulk commodities grew by an estimated 1.4% in 2009.

However, bauxite and alumina – which are key

components in aluminium production and are used primarily in the transport and construction industries – suffered a 23.2% decline. Volumes of phosphate rock, used as a fertiliser, dropped by 38.7%.

The boost in volumes came from iron ore shipments, which rose to an estimated 907 million tons in 2009 – an increase of 7.8% over the previous year. China accounted for much of the increase in iron ore trade, with imports growing by 38.9%, whereas Japan’s imports declined by 24.8% and Western Europe’s by 38.2%.

Pressure on rates will continue as new vessels come on line. At the beginning of 2010, the world merchant fleet reached 1.276 million deadweight tons (dwt) – an increase of 84 million dwt over 2009.

According to the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC), the second of the Incoterms – Free Carrier (FCA), at a named place of delivery, means that the “seller delivers the goods to the carrier or another person nominated by the buyer at the seller’s premises or another named place. The parties are well advised to specify as clearly as possible the point within the named place of delivery, as the risk passes to the buyer at that point”.

The ICC’s Incoterms®2010 identify ten obligations that the buyer may need to fulfil in terms of Free Carrier: (1) general obligations of the buyer; (2) licences, authorisations, security clearances and other formalities; (3) contract of carriage and insurance; (4) taking delivery; (5) transfer of risks; (6) allocation of costs; (7) notices to the seller; (8) proof of delivery; (9) inspection of goods; and (10) assistance with information and related costs.

Remember that where documents are referenced it could also refer to an electronic equivalent.

The general obligation of the buyer is to pay the price of the goods in accordance with the contract of sale. The licences, authorisations, security clearances and formalities must be obtained by the buyer at his/her own risk and expense. With respect to the contract of carriage and insurance the

buyer must contract at his/her own risk and expense, except when such contract is made by the seller. As for the contract of insurance, the buyer has no obligation. Regarding delivery to be effected, the buyer must take delivery of the goods when they are delivered.

Once the goods have been delivered (from the time of delivery) the buyer bears all risks for loss of or damage to the goods. As for the allocation of costs, the buyer must pay all costs relating to the goods from the time that they are delivered. The buyer must give notice to the seller of the name of the carrier or a nominated person in order for the seller to deliver the goods. The buyer is obliged to accept the seller’s proof of delivery. With respect to the inspection of goods, the buyer must pay the cost of mandatory pre-shipment inspection. The exception is if such inspection is mandated by the authorities of the country of export.

As for assistance with information (including security-related information) and related costs, the buyer must inform the seller of such requirements and reimburse the seller for any costs or expenses incurred.

at the terminal, if you run advanced terminals as we do, it’s taken straight off the truck into the stack. It doesn’t go anywhere near a weighbridge which means the equipment would need to be modified so that there’s a weighing mechanism in the spreader that picks up the container.”

This would clearly involve significant financial investment by the port authorities with no benefit.

For rail cargo it’s a different story entirely.

“We automatically weigh all containers moving by rail at the inland terminal in Gauteng before they are loaded on the train – we have the facilities and there’s no additional cost.

“We’re also working very hard to drive up productivity,” says Froes, “and if we have to build in an extra step it would have an impact. The only way would be to build the functionality into our container lifting equipment, including our cranes and RTGs. And while the manufacturers already have

the technology, it would be a very costly affair,” he said.

The issue of overweight containers has plagued shipping lines for some time.

Mediterranean Shipping Company, along with several other lines, has for some time imposed a penalty for overweight boxes.

And while things have improved marginally over past three years since the penalties have been applied, according to MSC’s Mike Vanhear, the Johannesburg office continues to pick up three to four misdeclared weights every week. And this is anything from one to four tons. Thankfully there appear to be few repeat offenders, according to Vanhear. “MSC will continue to apply the penalty. Clearly money talks – how else can you get their attention?”

“The nub of the problem for carriers,” says GM sales and marketing at MOL South Africa, Iain McIntosh, “is the fact that the most well-intentioned carriers will always be undermined in

application by someone more unscrupulous. As a result I don’t believe any of us really are penalising shippers when the chips are down because of the commercial impact.

“If however it goes legal then this removes all that nonsense.”

From a carrier’s point of view, he says, there are two key issues – safety and robbery of the vessel’s earning capacity.

It’s a major problem that won’t be going away any time soon.

Extreme weather conditions have wreaked havoc in Cape Town over the past month.

Relentless and excessive gale force winds, fog, extreme heat and humidity and a spate of mountain fires caused operational breakdowns in the port

while the Table Mountain cable car was closed continuously for four hours in what was described as the worst wind in a decade.

Fresh produce exporter Peter Newton was irate to discover on the morning of December 31 that only one (rather than the three) straddles was working the

West Coast reefer stack. He fired off a complaint to Cape Town’s TPT chief operations manager, Brenda Magqwaka, who denied the charge.

TPT’s regional executive, Velile Dube, has raised the concerns of the local shipping community about the ability of the new

rubber-tyre gantries (RTGs) to work in the Mother City’s winds with manufacturer Kalmar.

The total number of December wind stoppages and vessel delays could not be ascertained due to the Christmas shut-down but Maersk Dryden, a December 27 arrival, only berthed on

January 6, registering a total delay of 235.33 hours.

Likewise, the Cooper River Bridge berthed five days after arrival, delayed for 123.25 hours.

Safmarine says the wind affected not only its cargo operations but also the sailing and berthing of vessels.

Safmarine has called for clarity on a number of issues should compulsory weighing of boxes be introduced:

Who will pay for this •investment? Will it be the ports/terminals? And will they be prepared to invest? If the ports are required to •invest in this equipment, how will they recoup this investment, particularly considering the current terminal handling charge (THC) for containers is per box and per container type – and not per weight. In other words, if the current THC is unaffected by the

weight of the box, surely there is no operational or commercial imperative for the port/terminal to weigh the box.And if the ports pass the •cost of the investment on to shipping lines, will shipping lines be prepared to absorb the cost of compulsory weighing? Should they absorb the cost when shippers are, after all, the ones responsible for accurately declaring container weights? And, should it become a •requirement to recover the costs from shippers,

how will shipping lines feel about ‘penalising’ customers who generally comply with the weight regulations? In our view, the compulsory weighing of containers will need to become an industry requirement (ie legally and globally enforced by the IMO) and a global standard will be required with regard to cost, to prevent lines from gaining a competitive advantage by ignoring the overweight rules (for example by choosing not the pass on the costs to their customers).
