The new African maritime hub was solemnly opened by a number of guests from the local industry and Liebherr representatives. Mainly as a result of the close cooperation with Transnet over the past few years, Liebherr-Africa (LAF) has decided to extend its activities and to establish a specialized maritime hub in Durban. Transnet meanwhile operates over 60 Liebherr cranes, 13 mobile harbour cranes, 31 ship to shore container cranes and 18 rubber tyre gantry cranes. A Supplier Development (SD) agreement between Transnet and Liebherr is the latest expression of this long lasting partnership. Liebherr Africa is a fully owned subsidiary of the Liebherr Group which comprises more than 130 companies worldwide. Present since 1958 in South Africa, Liebherr Africa is serving the needs of the local mining, construction and civil engineering industries for more than 57 years.
