Why LBH Mozambique

Introduction

Projects Services

LBH is a premier operator in cargo, freight and support services. We specialise in challenging projects and pride ourselves in our ability to innovate and drive solutions for the most complex logistical problems.

Out-of-Gauge & Abnormal Cargo

We excel in the shipping and handling of oversized or irregularly-shaped cargo. Our expert team has the necessary experience and tools to transport our clients’ most challenging cargo. Our out-of-gauge shipping solutions will ensure that our clients never have to worry about the safety and urgent delivery of their cargo – whether the cargo requires self-propelled modular transport (SPMT), low bed trucks and/or airfreight, we will find a solution that works. Our expertise in transporting machinery, transformers, reactors, etc., is limitless.

Break Bulk

Due to their large size or weight, some goods need to be loaded onto a cargo ship or aircraft individually, rather than grouped in shipping containers. This makes loading and unloading the equipment more labour-intensive and potentially more costly. To save our clients time and money, we develop efficient and cost-effective break bulk shipping methods. We can help clients determine when this is a better choice than disassembling, packaging and reassembling the cargo when it reaches its destination.

Flat Racks & Open Tops

Flat rack and open top containers are especially suitable for heavy loads and cargo that needs loading from the top or sides, and cargo that is out-of-gauge. These containers are usually used for cargo such as pipes, machinery, etc. Our qualified team will ensure that the best solution is applied to the specific cargo, enabling us to be absolutely positive that it reaches its destination with no damaged or missing parts.

Rigging, Jacking & Skidding

Heavy pieces require cranes and/or rigging, jacking and skidding systems to lift and position the cargo onto the project site. We at LBH have the regional knowledge and heavy lift expertise to source the necessary equipment to safely transport large heavy items from one site to another.

Duty Exemption

Through our extensive knowledge and experience in dealing with different projects, we are experts in local customs clearance documentation, duties and taxes exemption procedures and rules. From CPI / GAZEDA / MINERAL / O&G to Health Ministry exemption access, we understand customs laws and rules, and ensure that our clients are always well-informed and that their duties are correctly applied.

Scheduling

LBH is able to offer a complete routing and scheduling service, ensuring that managers and operators remain updated with relevant route information. We ultimately aim to assist clients in gathering, coordinating and applying this information to assist in the smooth execution of projects.

LBH can provide a full suite of Clearing & Forwarding services for all your project needs.

Documentation

With our decades of experience in sub-Saharan Africa, we are able to ensure that our clients are in possession of all the necessary customs documentation for clearance, and that the documents are officially credible. We understand the importance of this procedure as a crucial step in securing our clients’ supply chain.

Cargo Clearance

LBH is able to ensure the legal passing of all imported, exported and transit cargo through coastal ports, airports, railway and road stations. We have established good working relationships at all major Southern African terminals to ensure that we are well-positioned to manage these processes.

Clearing & Forwarding Services

Project Experience

We have encountered and overcome many unique challenges throughout our years of experience with project cargo. Our local partners and knowledge of local conditions are key to our success in overcoming obstacles in the African environment, and experience has taught us to think outside the box and come up with effective solutions, even under pressure.

Our team is comprised of seasoned local experts with the right knowledge to proceed with, and supervise all types of project cargo. Our extensive experience in the field, allows us to design each project for the greatest chance of success.

Mozambique General Information

Mozambique Ports Serving SADC Countries

The Mozambican ports are used as import / export transit ports for the inland, land-locked countries in the region (Zambia, Zimbabwe, Botswana and Malawi), using road and railway connections which are generally in good conditions.

Mozambique has a coastline that stretches for about 2700km, making maritime transport the most economical way of carrying large volumes of cargo from north to south, and vice-versa. There are five major ports: Maputo, Beira, Nacala, Quelimane and Pemba. The ports of Maputo, Beira and Nacala are under management contracts and are run by foreign companies.

The SADC railway industry comprises of 14 operating railways, with 12 owned by the government. There are two concessioned railways, which are Beitbridge Bulawayo Railway and the Central East African Railway. The railways have recently been losing traffic to road transport due to their inefficiency and lack of predictability.
