The success of the citrus industry in southern Africa depends on reliable and efficient
logistics. About 75% of the citrus produced in South Africa is exported as fresh fruit,
generating 95% of the industry’s income.
About half of the citrus exported from South Africa goes through the Durban port, with the
rest distributed between Cape Town in the Western Cape, and Gqeberha and Ngqura in the
Eastern Cape. From these ports, citrus fruit is shipped to more than thirty-five ports of
destination across the globe. The ports of destination, to where the most citrus is shipped
from southern Africa, are Rotterdam in the Netherlands, London Gateway in England, St
Petersburg in Russia, Jebel Ali in the United Arab Emirates, and Shanghai in China.
