Spartan Area Info

Spartan at a glance

Spartan is a booming, well-established industrial area and one of the largest industrial precincts in Kempton Park which is situated on the Eastrand. Kempton Park was originally recognized in 1903 when a wealthy farmer by the name of Karl Wolff decided to sub-divide a percentage of his Zuurfontein farm into residential areas, this area would be named Kempton and then later this area would be named Kempton Park. By 1952 the then Jan Smuts airport would be built on land nearby, which is today known as the OR Tambo International Airport.

The area is centrally located and is a prominent location for  well - known companies. It boasts a good mix of both heavy and light industrial properties in the way of warehouses and factories. Property development in the area is on the rise and offers various industrial applications such as distribution, logistics and warehousing.

The Spartan area is home to various nodes of industry which is largely due to its proximity. The area is situated on the R24, nearby the R21 and N12 highway which ensures an efficient commute for workers who are travelling to and from all areas especially in the East Rand.

Another contributing factor to the success of Spartan is its close proximity to OR Tambo International Airport that is less than 3km, which makes Spartan a primary port of call when the need arises to store and distribute goods.

The Gautrain is ideally located and it can be easily accessible via both the airport and the Rhodesfield Gautrain station which also offers bus services and there is also a Metrorail train station in Kempton Park. The area is also connected via minivan taxis which run over the greater Gauteng area.

The property landscape in Spartan makes provision for large and small businesses alike - with factories, warehouses and other industrial property types ranging from 50m2 to anywhere above 15 000m2.

Property ownership offers a mix of owner occupiers and investors, mainly private and smaller investment funds. Due to Spartan's close proximity to leading facilities and infrastructure such as the Gautrain, the city of Johannesburg has earmarked Spartan for major developments and upgrades.
