The two SOE’s will also partner in operating TransNamib’s premises in Otjiwarongo, Walvis Bay and Grootfontein and any other premises of TransNamib as may be agreed by the two parties from time to time.

The agreement,  follows, a recently signed Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between the two companies, to promote a strategic partnership that will strengthen capacities for rail transport and distribution of fuel commodities.
