CATO RIDGE - INTERMODAL FACILITIES, TRUCK STAGING, CONTAINER STACKING, WAREHOUSING & LOGISTICS

CATO RIDGE - INTERMODAL FACILITIES, TRUCK STAGING, CONTAINER STACKING, WAREHOUSING & LOGISTICS - THE INLAND PORT IS HERE!

Driving through Cato-Ridge it is now clear that the Inland Port is here!

Over recent months the Intermodal /Transshipment facility has started to operate more effectively and efficiently with the increased availability of rail traffic slots.

There has also been a significant increase in the number of Truck Staging facilities and, although the current locations of such are not ideal, they are working well as temporary facilities, until such time as the planned development of the large new truck stop and staging facility can be completed.  The proposed new KwaXimba Interchange on the N3 will certainly assist in making the new truck stop and staging area more efficient and attractive to operators.

The Maersk reefer stacking area and other container stacks are clearly visible and confirm that the international shipping lines are realizing the potential of the area.

A number of recent property sales for warehousing and logistics operations have virtually depleted the stock of available warehousing so new developments, including another large cold storage facility are soon to be constructed. There is, fortunately, still a fair amount of Industrial zoned property available for sale and or Turnkey Development.  

After many years of very gradual growth, it is now clearly apparent that the pace of development is definitely picking up.
