Area Overview

Jet Park – Where Industry Meets Excellence

Contents

 

Introduction:

Finding the right location for your business is the first opportunity presented to start-ups or industry leaders. I would argue that a property-like industry has evolved and adapted to the times. Nowadays, a business’s location plays a far more significant role in the overall health and prosperity of the venture than ever before. Jet Park, located within Boksburg, was originally a small town that served the “gold rush” period beginning in the late 1800s after the discovery of the Witwatersrand goldfields. Today, it has been transformed into a thriving industrial hub featuring excellent connectivity to major transportation routes and proximity to key industry players.
