3.1.5 <strong>Transit</strong> Imports Financial Impact<br />

Table 8 highlights all the additional costs that apply when shipping to South Africa via<br />

Maputo.<br />

Furthermore, when there are delays in the shipping or transport supply chain, costs are<br />

incurred in the form of port storage, truck demurrage <strong>and</strong> container detention. These<br />

costs pose a serious risk to shippers as they accrue on a daily basis <strong>and</strong> in many cases<br />

can render goods being transported unviable commercially once they have been<br />

subjected to charges as a result of delays.<br />

Included in Table 8 are the following costs:<br />

Truck detention costs: 1 day delay costs ZAR4500 or USD643<br />

Container Detention: 1 day costs ZAR350 or USD50<br />

Port storage costs:<br />

R<strong>and</strong> to USD<br />

1 day storage per container is ZAR98 or USD14/28<br />

A Rate of Exchange (ROE) of R7 to 1 USD has been used<br />
