"Transnet SOC Ltd Head Office Physical Address Carlton Centre 150 Commissioner Street Johannesburg 2001"〕 It was formed as a limited company on 1 April 1990. A majority of the company's stock is owned by the Department of Public Enterprises, or DPE, of the South African government. The company was formed by restructuring into business units the operations of South African Railways and Harbours and other existing operations and products.
The business units of Transnet include:
* Transnet National Ports Authority and Transnet Port Terminals- NPA and SAPO - own and operate the country's main seaports
* Transnet Pipelines - principal operator of South Africa's fuel pipelines
* Transnet Freight Rail railway operator - freight service
* Transnet Rail Engineering - rolling stock manufacturing and maintenance
The National Ports Authority provides port infrastructure and marine services at the eight commercial seaports in South Africa.
Transnet port terminals was established in 2000, when Transnet's then single port division, Portnet, was divided into operations and landlord businesses namely, SAPO (Transnet port terminals) and National Port Authority (TNPA). Since its setting up, Transnet port terminals has played a part in supporting the South African government's export-led growth strategy. Most Southern African import and export commodities are handled through South Africa's six largest ports: Richards Bay, Durban, Saldanha, Cape Town, Port Elizabeth and East London. In October 2009 the new deepwater Port of Ngqura was commissioned just 7 km outside of Port Elizabeth. Port Terminals not only handle these cargo but implement logistics management solutions for its container, bulk, break-bulk (multi-purpose) and car terminal operations.
Transnet Pipelines, formerly known as Petronet, the guardian of the country's pipeline assets and is currently servicing two key industries (fuel and gas) by transporting petroleum and gas products over changeable distances.
Transnet Freight Rail formerly known as Spoornet, is the biggest division of Transnet. It is an outstanding heavy haul freight rail company that specializes in the transportation of freight. It is the biggest outside United States and excluding India that is not a company but a Government Department.
Transnet Engineering is dedicated to in-service maintenance, repair, upgrade, conversion and manufacture of freight wagons, mainline and suburban coaches, diesel and electric locomotives as well as wheels, rotating machines, rolling stock equipment, castings auxiliary equipment and services.
==History of development==
Railways were first developed in the area surrounding Cape Town and later in Durban around the 1840s. The first line opened in Durban on 27 June 1850. The initial network was created to serve the agricultural production area between Cape Town and Wellington. The news that there were gold deposits in the Transvaal Republic moved the Cape Colony Government (supported by British Government) to link Kimberley as soon as possible by rail to Cape Town as part of the colonial dream.〔http://globalview.uic.asso.fr/cd-rom3_sans/transnet_background.pdf〕
In the Union of South Africa (31 May 1910 - 31 May 1961), consisting of the four earlier colonies: the Cape of Good Hope, Natal, Orange Free State and Transvaal; all railways in South Africa finally became unified as a state-owned railway system in 1916 when the Central South African Railways, the Cape Government Railways and the Natal Government Railways were all fused by an Act of Parliament. Thus was born the South African Railways and Harbours (SAR&H).〔http://mysite.mweb.co.za/residents/grela/transnet.htm〕
