Mining
Africa’s mining sector is the largest mineral resources industry in the world.
The continent is the second-largest and endowed with large quantities of mineral wealth.
For many African countries, mining is the backbone of their respective economies, with mineral exploration and production contributing significantly to their gross domestic product (GDP).
We pride ourselves on supporting our client Exxaro Resources, the largest coal and heavy minerals mining company in South Africa, by connecting, engaging and sharing their “Proudly South African” story with various strategic stakeholders.
Rail Transport
Africa’s rail renaissance is here. One cannot ignore the vast investments that have been pumped into reviving Africa’s ageing rail infrastructure and rolling stock over the past five years.
We have been fortunate to service this industry at a very critical and opportune time where Africa’s rail sector was re-writing the narrative of Africa’s growth potential. We partnered with TMH Africa to tell authentic African stories of how the investments into this sector are increasing Africa’s competitiveness, moving loads and loads of goods from our roads to rail and connecting Africa to Intra-Africa trade and regional integration.
We have done work for TMH Africa, a subsidiary of TMH International, a division of the TMH Group, and a world leader in railway engineering and Russia’s largest company in transport engineering. Globally, TMH has an annual turnover of 4.5. billion Euros employs over 100 000 people, has 13 industrial sites and nine locomotive repair sites, and has 15 000 locomotives under maintenance.
