Commercial and industrial property demand, from both upcountry and Cape Town tenants, owner occupiers and investors for Airport Property is increasing and supply is limited. This should translate into good capital gains in the future.

On the industrial side, the Airport area is predominantly occupied by businesses that need quick access to the Airfreight terminal such as courier, logistics and freight companies. There are also a growing number of logistics companies that do very little or no airfreight business, yet they have chosen to locate in the Airport industrial area due to its close proximity to labour and the N2 motorway, which provides quick access to Cape Town CBD. Airport City is considered the most desirable area in the Airport as it is the newest area with modern buildings and controlled access.
The Airport is situated in Cape Town’s Central industrial property node which includes Epping and Parow Industria, which are very close to the Airport and often seen as good alternative industrial locations to the Airport.
