South Africa’s most important port is going from zero to hero

Durban’s container terminal was the world’s most improved port in the 2025 CPPI rankings, with operational reforms and private-sector investment plans driving a sharp turnaround.

Durban’s CPPI score improved by 479 points, the most of any port in 2025, taking it from -721 to -242 and moving it off the bottom of the table.

This was on the back of operational stabilisation, with Durban reducing vessel waiting times from 20 vessels to zero.

Get the ANC out of the way for just a few months and look what happens.

Let's not pretend that the local idiots had anything to do with this. Once again proving that when government is removed from the equation the numbers immediately improve.
