Improvon, a specialist property investment company focusing on the warehousing and logistics sector across sub-Saharan Africa, says ‘investable industrial nodes’ in Gauteng and the Western Cape will continue to drive demand for warehousing and distribution centre facilities throughout 2025.
The 50-hectare high-profile Meadowview Business Park offers one of the most strategically desirable locations in Johannesburg along with ample space to grow. Although the first development in the park only broke ground in June 2011, it is already attracting strong interest and has attracted to top companies: For example leading SA company General Medical Supplies (GMS) recently opened its new 6 000 sqm head office, warehouse and manufacturing facility at the prime new commercial estate.
And, GMS isn’t the only company to commit to this growing, modern business complex. Multinational supply chain company UTi Pharma seized the opportunity to develop its facility on a 61,000sqm site at Meadowview Business Park.
Hugo Stroud, director of Intaprop explains that Meadowview Business Park’s most attractive advantage is its location. It is central to Gauteng, at the London Road interchange of the N3 highway at R25 Modderfontein Road. “This gives it superb road access, connecting to the N3, Modderfontein, OR Tambo International Airport and Greenstone retail node”. Furthermore, its loccation between Longmeadow and Linbro Park is at the epicentre of current FMCG logistics property demand.
“Meadowview Business Park also benefits from substantial office and warehousing zoning. This means it offers a range of accommodation that neighbouring areas cannot,” notes Stroud: The Park includes 250,000sqm of development ranging in size from 5,000sqm to 20,000sqm and upwards. Land can be sized to user requirements during the development stage, providing flexibility. It also offers tailor-made amalgamations of offices, laboratories, warehousing or logistics facilities for clients.
Stroud points to the high-spec, high-tech GMS facility, which Intaprop custom-built to meet the company’s needs. It benefits from Meadowview Business Park’s secure high street, landscaped business environment. For staff, it has generous on-grade parking and is close to public transport, including the Gautrain.
Intaprop, which owns Meadowview Business Park, is a private property development and investment enterprise with a successful track record in corporate real estate development.
