Gqeberha: heat, power and cold chains
Gqeberha is famously windy, and the wind carries salt spray far inland, so condenser coils and fan motors on fridges, freezers and cold room units corrode quickly.

The harbour handles fruit and fish, and the squid fleet needs freezing on shore. Beachfront flats in Summerstrand and Humewood are rented to students and holidaymakers, while KwaZakhele, Motherwell and New Brighton have many spaza shops with bottle coolers. Coils and fans eaten by salt are the classic local fault, followed by display coolers that give up in a berg wind heat wave.
