Trucking sector says Transnet strike contributing to major backlogs

Businesses affected by the Transnet strike say they don’t know how much longer they can hold out.

Companies – specifically those that are port-focused – are bleeding money as the strike derails operations.

It’s exactly one week since over 4,000 workers downed tools at Transnet rail and ports across the country.

Businesses say the strike is doing massive damage to their bottom lines.

Those in the trucking sector say the strike is contributing to major backlogs.

They worry this might lead to customers turning to other countries.

Meanwhile, talks continue as neither side seems willing to budge.
