	Description:		Stephen Grootes speaks to Jabu Mdaki, Chief Executive of Transnet Port Terminals about persistent operational failures at the Port of Cape Town and the growing strain they are placing on South Africa’s fruit export industry. Delays at the container terminal, equipment breakdowns and weather-related disruptions have led to missed shipping windows, higher cold-storage costs and forced diversions to alternative ports, undermining exporters’ competitiveness during a critical peak season and raising broader concerns about the reliability of the country’s logistics backbone. Anton Gillis, CEO of the Hospitality Asset Management Company (HAMAC) talks about the sobering findings of the inaugural South African Hoteliers Report and the growing pressures threatening the long-term sustainability of the hospitality sector.
