Durban and Coega among the world’s most improved ports

This is a sharp turnaround from last year, when four South African ports were listed among the worst performers in the world.
The latest Container Port Performance Index (CPPI) from the World Bank lists Durban and Coega as among the most improved ports in the world in 2025 compared to the previous year.
On a five-year time frame, Port Elizabeth was listed as one of the five most improved ports between 2020 and 2025.
