Inquiry

Good day,

My name is Delisile Dlamini, Business Development Manager at Shandaai Global in the kingdom of Swaziland, southern Africa.

I need your advice on a current client request to ship 2000MT of ground nuts to Viet Nam for durban harbour in south africa.

The project requires the transportation of groundnuts from source (the farm) to the harbour then onto a ship to Vietnam.

These are my questions;

1. I read your article on the 20ft and 40ft containers and I am a little confused. I need to understand which containers are perfect for the transportation of groundnuts from the farm to the harbour and if it is possible to simply use shipping containers from the onset from the farm or we have to use the freight containers seeing as the mode of transportation will be trucks as rail isn't a possible option.

2. How does the shipment remain fresh during the shipment process as the entire trip takes 45 days from the harbour to Hai Phong?

3. Because this is our first project, I would also like to know which documents are necessary to get these groundnuts shipped?

Thank you for your time.

Kind regards,

Delisile Dlamini
