Grindrod, Minrail Secure Access to Transnet Rail Lines
South Africa’s state transport firm Transnet SOC Ltd. granted 11 private companies concessions to operate trains on its freight-rail lines, part of a reform aimed at easing logistical bottlenecks that have constrained economic growth.
The companies, all of which made a shortlist that was announced by the government in August, included Grindrod Ltd., Minrail, Menar and Barberry.
