The core of the business industry, where everything happens
Johannesburg's industrial locations are where companies compete, collaborate, innovate, and ultimately achieve success. One of the key perks of industrial zones is their proximity to main highways, making it easier to transport goods quickly and efficiently, which makes for smart business investments. Here are some of Johannesburg's most desirable industrial sites:
A thriving industrial hub in Aeroton
Aeroton, located in the south of Johannesburg, is a mix of industrial and residential real estate. There are many kinds of industrial property, such as warehouses, factories,
microunits, and micro-factories. You can buy the zoned property or have it developed to fit your needs while also being close to Johannesburg's large and available labour force. The neighbourhood is appealing to investors because of the vast space and variety of available properties.
A train station close to the town centre is one example of Aeroton's superior transportation infrastructure. Small businesses can thrive in this location because of the convenience of its central location and the proximity to public transit options.
City Deep's role as the heartbeat of the industrial area
City Deep location is an excellent blend of industry and innovation, with a direct link to Durban port, which is the lifeblood of Transnet Freight Rail's container terminal. Not just that, the location also boasts of being the country's largest and most prominent dry port. Because of this, logistics and freight companies, along with other top businesses, want to locate there. Clover, Roadwing Company, MSC Logistics, Food For Life, and Tanish Infotech Solutions are just a few well-known corporations calling City Deep home.
City Deep offers top-notch storage facilities, workshops, and workspaces in various sizes, ranging from micro-factories of 100 square metres to enormous industrial complexes of 30,000 square feet. City Deep has been an important business centre for quite some time which has sparked a lively market for sales and rents, making the area increasingly desirable.
