WBCG, Namport on the move

A delegation of representatives from Namport and the Walvis Bay Corridor Group (WBCG) visited Zambia and the Democratic Republic of Congo recently.The team conducted a corridor assessment tour of the Walvis Bay-Ndola-Lubumbashi development corridor (WBNLDC) and assessed key border infrastructure. They also gained an understanding of the advantages and disadvantages of trading through the port of Walvis Bay through the WBNLDC, and promoted the export and import of goods through the corridor.The delegation used the opportunity to visit clients while promoting business development initiatives through the use of the corridor, led by Namport’s board chairperson, Nangula Amunyela.The WBNLDC provides the shortest route between the Namibian west coast ports of Lüderitz and Walvis Bay and the vital transport hubs of Livingstone, Lusaka and Ndola in Zambia, Lubumbashi (southern Democratic Republic of Congo) and Zimbabwe. The corridor is perfectly positioned to service the two-way trade between the SADC region and Europe, North and South America and emerging markets in the east. The other two corridors, namely the TransKalahari corridor and the Trans-Cunene corridor, service the two-way trade between South Africa, Botswana, Zimbabwe, Europe, the Americas and the Far East, with the latter corridor servicing the two-way trade between Angola, Namibia, South Africa, Europe, the Americas and the East with a rail line that has been completed up to the Angolan border.
