Mackay Marine is pleased to announce our newest marine electronics sales and service locations in Port Elizabeth, South Africa (recently renamed as Gqeberha). Situated in Algoa Bay on the SE coast of South Africa, the port of Gqeberha is one of only five ports in South Africa with a container terminal. This congestion-free port allows for highly productive cargo handling, resulting in a fast and efficient turnaround. Mackay will also service the nearby deep-water Port of Ngqura (formerly known as Kuga).

In addition to being a major container terminal with the latest in high-tech loading services, Gqeberha’s deep (14.5m) and expansive port services industries such as: Manganese ore from the Northern Cape, petroleum products, major car manufacturing, agricultural products, machinery/steel, wool, and a robust fishing industry.

Mackay’s location will serve as an additional beacon of relief for vessels in need of maintenance, inspection, or product installation.

Managing Director of Mackay Marine South Africa, Waldo Fourie:

“Providing another service location to customers in, or visiting South African ports, exemplifies our aim for continued improvement to support our clients.
