We are excited to welcome Kwazi Mabaso as the new Chief Executive Officer of Grindrod Limited, effective 1 December 2025.
This follows our June announcement advising shareholders of the resignation of our outgoing CEO, Xolani Mbambo.
Kwazi steps into this role following his successful tenure as CEO of Grindrod Terminals, where he has been instrumental in shaping and executing some of the Group’s most strategic initiatives.
With a strong track record in cross-border leadership, stakeholder management, and large-scale project delivery, Kwazi brings both a global perspective and deep experience within African markets. This unique combination has seen him play a central role in driving Grindrod’s strategy, transformation, and growth, including the significant mergers and acquisitions concluded this year.
As we thank Xolani Mbambo for his leadership and contributions, we look forward to the next chapter under Kwazi’s guidance, one focused on unlocking opportunities, building partnerships, and creating lasting value.
Please join us in congratulating Kwazi on this appointment!
