The Port of Durban
Maydon Wharf Precinct 

This state-of-the-art facility, situated in the Maydon Wharf precinct within the Port of Durban, 

is not only a first-of-its-kind development for Mnambithi Terminals but also a transformative

addition to the broader Durban port system.

The terminal is designed to enhance operational efficiency and expand the port’s capacity

to handle a diverse range of liquid bulk products. By introducing modern infrastructure,

advanced safety systems, and globally aligned operational standards, the development

reinforces Durban’s status as a critical logistics hub in the Southern African region.

Beyond its immediate operational purpose, the facility is expected to drive economic

activity by enabling increased trade volumes, facilitating smoother supply chain

operations, and supporting the growth of downstream industries reliant on reliable

liquid storage solutions.

As a forward-looking investment, the terminal directly addresses the growing need

for high-quality liquid bulk storage. In doing so, it aligns with Transnet National Ports

Authority’s (TNPA) strategic intent to attract investment into critical infrastructure,

improve port efficiency, and foster a more resilient and competitive

maritime economy.

Mnambithi Terminals is poised to play a pivotal role in shaping the regional logistics

landscape. Through its commitment to innovation, industry collaboration, and long-

term sustainability, the company aims to create lasting value for

South Africa’s economy and its key industrial stakeholders.
