RICHARDS BAY, South Africa – Reload Logistics, a leading provider of end-to-end supply chain solutions in Africa, has recently acquired a 50,000 sqm Sulphur Bulk Terminal in Richards Bay and now performs record-setting discharging at this strategic location.

Reload’s latest acquisition has an indoor storage of 20,000 sqm, a loading area of 10,000 sqm, and has operations for simultaneous offloading, bagging, and loading for both rail and trucks of containerized or break-bulk cargo.
