OUR STORY
Swartkops Terminal Pty Ltd (STC) commenced operations in September 2014, operating at the old Swartkops Power Station next to Swartkops River - the landmark that has become part of the city scape over the years.
STC receives bulk manganese export consignments by rail, offloading these trains, stockpiling the manganese and subsequent delivery of the manganese in skips to shipside by road transport.
STC is a service provider to Transnet. Through this relationship, Transnet now directs most of the existing manganese mines in the Northern Cape to utilize the services of STC in receiving the arriving trains, stockpiling their contents and the subsequent delivery by road to the shipside in Gqeberha.
