AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Shell Sale Update: ADNOC Distribution has signed an agreement with Reatile to buy a minority stake in Shell Downstream South Africa, moving the local petrol station network sale closer; the deal values Shell’s SA operations at about $1bn (around R16bn) for roughly 600 outlets, needs regulatory approval and is expected to close in 2027. Rand Watch: The rand strengthened below R16/$, helped by a weaker dollar and higher gold prices, with analysts pointing to improving fundamentals. Sustainable Farming: “Duck run” pest control is gaining traction in the Winelands, where Indian runner ducks replace pesticides in vineyards. Public Health at Borders: South Africa’s Border Management Authority ran a second Ebola simulation at Beitbridge, testing detection, isolation and response in a high-volume land border setting. Crime Intelligence Case: Prosecutors withdrew fraud and corruption charges against police crime intelligence boss Lt-Gen Dumisani Khumalo and others, after a review. Energy & City Finance: Johannesburg settled a R5.25bn Eskom debt, averting the risk of power being throttled ahead of November municipal elections. Sports: Springbok captain Pieter-Steph du Toit urged consistent concentration for the All Blacks opener at Ellis Park; meanwhile, cricket fast bowler Kagiso Rabada is dealing with a right hamstring injury ahead of the summer.
