Container Connect:Frequently asked questions
What is Container Connect?
Container Connect is GoReefers' container equipment access solution. It secures priority allocation of reefer and dry containers for South African exporters during periods when equipment is short, so booked shipments still sail on their intended vessel.
Why are containers short during the South African export season?
Peak export season concentrates demand for reefer equipment into a narrow window. When more exporters need containers than the shipping lines have positioned in the region, equipment becomes the constraint on the whole programme rather than vessel space.
What happens if I cannot get a container in time?
Cargo rolls to a later sailing, which extends cold store dwell, adds storage cost, consumes shelf life and can put a delivery commitment to your buyer at risk. Container Connect exists to prevent that sequence starting.
Does Container Connect cover both reefer and dry containers?
Yes. Priority allocation covers refrigerated and dry equipment, so both temperature-controlled and general cargo programmes can be protected.
