The East London Terminal (MPT) consists of a Ro-Ro terminal, the largest grain silo on the South African coastline, break-bulk and containerised cargo facilities. The NOSCAR rated Ro-Ro facility includes a sophisticated multi-level car terminal. Established in 1963, the terminal currently employs over 120 people.

Recent investments in equipment varying from straddle carriers, reach stacker and forklifts – have seen a focused plan delivering an efficient service that has boosted terminal handling. The East London Terminal still has ample capacity and an ability to attract more volumes across varying cargo including heavy equipment.

The terminal handles import and export cargo like motor vehicle components, textiles, sugar, rice, timber, scrap steel, automotive and chemicals. The Ro-Ro facility has retained its NOSCAR status for the last 13 consecutive years in an operation that has two dedicated berths that service automotive brands.

The Ngqura Container Terminal (NCT) has been designed as a state-of-the-art transhipment hub, servicing traffic from the Far East, South America, East and West African markets. It is a world-class deepwater tranship hub offering an integrated, efficient and competitive port and lies 20km northeast of Port Elizabeth and is situated at the mouth of Coega River in the Nelson Mandela Bay Municipality. The Terminal boasts a 16-meter draft, with 4 berths and 8 ship-to-shore (STS) cranes, 1652 Reefer points and Transhipment capacity of 1.5m Teus. The Terminal has seen a steady improvement in volume growth and operational performance over the years.

Popular choice for Container Shipping Lines, the port currently handles just over 6 million tonnes of cargo per year – over 400 vessel calls – with a 30-year forecast predicting up to 110 million tonnes of cargo per year. Offering a transit that is safe and efficient, the port is specifically geared to serve West and East African, European and Asian trade routes, making it a popular choice for container shipping lines. The port also serves the industrial bulk commodity requirements of the regional and national hinterland. It offers a 24-hour marine service with three 70 ton bollard pull tugs.

The Terminal has state of the art technology with an Automated Gate System (Auto Gate) with Pre-Booking/Pre-Advice Functionality that improves truck processing time & eliminates human error. The NCT brings the Eastern Cape Region into the mainstream economy of the country. The terminal employs just over 800 employees.

The Port Elizabeth Terminal was ranked the highest in Africa for moves per hour between January and March 2013 by the world's largest ocean carrier and container shipping company Maersk Line. The accolade is a result of measured efficiency when counting the number of containers handled per hour which impacts directly on vessel turnaround time.

The Terminal doesn't only house a container terminal, but a NOSCAR rated Ro-Ro facility and a manganese bulk handling operation. The specialised manganese facility was recently upgraded to enhance capacity and improve environmental performance. Also an automotive hub for the Eastern Cape Region, bringing much needed economic relief to the region, the terminal employs just over 480 employees.

The new fleet of arriving break bulk equipment will see the terminal further optimise its operational efficiencies.
