Nos últimos três meses de 2021, a Cabship, empresa que há 12 anos acumula experiência em conteúdo local, especificamente na gestão e logística no sector petrolífero, tem recuperado do quadro sombrio de negócio provado, no início de 2020, pela pandemia da Covid-19. Segundo o seu CEO, João Filipe, a recuperação tem sido satisfatória e vai permitir a aposta em novos investimentos.

A curto-prazo, revelou, a instituição continuará a oferecer soluções às empresas do sector extractivo, construção, energia e saúde, na gestão integrada de inventários, visando optimizar custos. A médio-prazo, prosseguiu, pretende fortalecer a sua presença no segmento de offshore marine support (barcos, sondas) e, a longo-prazo, augura construir um parque logístico.

“Com este projecto, pretendemos contribuir para reduzir os custos da cadeia logística, incluindo medicamentos, bens alimentares secos e congelados, com a integração de soluções digitais que facilitam a gestão de produtos e matérias em armazéns terceirizados”, esclareceu o gestor.

No que respeita ao capital humano, avançou, a Cabship conta com 400 colaboradores, entre os quais 395 são angolanos e apenas cinco estrangeiros, sendo actualmente a maior empregadora privada da província de Cabinda.

Para ultrapassar os constrangimentos causados pela Covid-19, referiu João Filipe, a empresa viu-se obrigada a “adiar os seus projectos de capital intensivo”, utilizando recursos próprios em situações pontuais.

Recovered from the effects of the crisis, Cabship has an eye on new projects

Since the onset of Covid-19, Cabship has registered losses of over 30% of its turnover, resulting in the dismissal of 40% of its workforce. However, the company has already recovered from the loss and has new projects in the pipeline, including the construction of a logistics park.

In the last three months of 2021, Cabship, a company with 12 years of experience in local content, specialized in oil industry management and logistics, has been recovering from the gloomy business scenario proven, in early 2020, by the Covid-19 pandemic. According to the company’s CEO, João Filipe, the recovery has been satisfactory and will allow focus on new investments.

In the short term, he affirmed, Cabship will continue to offer integrated inventory management solutions aimed at optimizing costs to companies in the mining, construction, energy and health sectors. In the mid-term, he continued, it intends to strengthen its presence in the offshore marine support segment (boats, rigs), while, in the long term, it hopes to build a logistics park.

“With this project, we intend to reduce logistics chain costs, including for the supply of medicines and dry and frozen food goods, through the integration of digital solutions that facilitate the management of products and materials in outsourced warehouses”, explained the manager.

In terms of human capital, Cabship employs 400 personnel, of which 395 are Angolans and only five are expatriates, and is currently the largest private employer in the province of Cabinda.

To overcome the constraints caused by Covid-19, the company was forced to “postpone its capital-intensive projects”, using its own resources in occasional situations, said João Filipe.
