SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE MANDATE
Discover a prime investment opportunity in the heart of Markman Industrial Park, the new epicenter for manganese storage. This strategic location became essential after Transnet’s relocation of the manganese ore facility from Gqeberha to the Port of Ngqurha. With manganese transported by both rail and trucks from Northern Cape mines, this property offers an ideal staging ground, stockpiling manganese before it is loaded onto ships.
This industrial property boasts excellent accessibility, with easy road access and a convenient rail line at the rear or back of the premises. Security is paramount with comprehensive features in place, alongside paved roads and parking areas capable of handling heavily loaded trucks.
Upon entering the property, you will find a variety of well-structured buildings. On the left, a 200-square-meter office block greets you, accompanied by two diesel fuel tanks, one holding 23,000 liters and the other 46,000 liters. To the right, there is an undercover parking area adjacent to a 407-square-meter warehouse or store. Next to it lies a 70-square-meter building currently serving as a canteen, complete with an outdoor braai area and kitchen facilities.
Further along, a 140-square-meter building equipped with restrooms and ablution facilities caters to drivers. Adjacent to this is a 223-square-meter washing bay for trucks. The property also includes a substantial truck workshop with office space, measuring 630 square meters—perfect for maintaining and servicing trucks of all sizes. Additionally, there is another warehouse spanning approximately 1,233 square meters. In total, the property offers approximately 2,903 square meters of covered area along with around 15,000 square meters of open yard space.
Considering today's building costs, replicating the existing infrastructure at this price point would be challenging. The property also includes a backup generator to ensure uninterrupted operations during load shedding or power outages. This site is ideal for anyone in the manganese trade looking to service their fleet or for entrepreneurs aiming to establish a diesel depot with added truck washing services.
Moreover, permissions can be obtained to store manganese onsite, and should you require more space, negotiations can be initiated for expansion.
