Celebrating Young Athletes in Eswatini! As we close out 2024, we are thrilled to celebrate two talented young athletes from the Manzini region of Eswatini, who proudly secured a bronze and a silver medal at the Nationals. These athletes along with seven others from the Manzini region competed against athletes from the Hhohho, Shiselweni, and Lubombo regions, all striving for the coveted gold medal. Their journey began in November during the Schools Athletics Talent Search Tournament organised by the Eswatini Sports Council and culminated in a fierce competition at the national level. Our Grindrod team, along with the local community, united to support these remarkable athletes. Out of 31 impressive competitors, nine exceptional learners emerged victorious and represented the Manzini region at the Nationals. We provided transportation for these champions and offered refreshments, demonstrating our unwavering commitment to uplifting local communities. Congratulations to our medalists! #TalentedAthletes #CommunitySupport #ManziniRegion #EswatiniSportsCouncil #SupportingYoungAthletes #Eswatini #UpliftingCommunities #Grindrod

Exciting News from Grindrod's Navitrade Terminal! We are pleased to announce that Grindrod’s Navitrade terminal in Richards Bay achieved a significant milestone, 2.0 million tonnes of coal throughput in 2024. The collective efforts of the Transnet Port Terminals and Grindrod teams working with our local partner Eyamakhosi have been instrumental in breaking the previous records and positioning the terminal for continued success. TPT played a crucial role in repairing the 2.2 km conveyor damaged in the October 2021 fires. “A special thanks to the Transnet Port Terminal teams for their unwavering commitment to excellence and customer service and to the Navitrade team for their dedication and commitment,” said Kwazi Mabaso, CEO of Grindrod Terminals. #GrindrodTerminals #NavitradeTerminal #MilestoneAchieved #TeamWork #Transnet #RichardsBay #CoalExports
