Westown Shongweni Development: A Premier Destination for Retail, Commercial, and Industrial Logistics Operations
Introduction to Westown: Westown, strategically situated along the N3 highway between Durban and Pietermaritzburg, is a transformative 100-hectare mixed-use development at the heart of the larger 2,000-hectare Shongweni Urban Development project. This ambitious project, set to reshape Durban's Outer West region, is poised to become a significant economic hub, offering unparalleled opportunities for businesses looking to establish retail, commercial, and industrial logistics operations.
Retail and Commercial Appeal: Westown presents a unique retail and commercial environment designed to cater to a growing and dynamic market. The development includes Westown Square, a 50,000 square meter retail experience with a high-street design that blends indoor and outdoor spaces. Businesses can benefit from this prime location by tapping into a growing population base, which has seen significant year-on-year increases in working-age adults. The area is particularly attractive to those between the ages of 18-49, indicating a strong consumer base for retail and commercial enterprises.
Commercial properties in Westown offer tailored solutions, with platforms ranging from 8,000 to 18,000 square meters, and developments between 7,000 to 22,000 square meters. These properties are ideal for various uses, including office parks, motor showrooms, big-box retail, and other lifestyle-related businesses. The strategic location along the N3 ensures seamless connectivity to local, regional, and national transport networks, making it an ideal choice for businesses seeking to expand or relocate.
Industrial and Logistics Opportunities: For companies involved in industrial logistics, Westown offers a compelling proposition. The development is directly connected to the Durban-Free State-Gauteng Logistics and Industrial Corridor (SIP2), providing easy access to major logistics hubs, including the Durban Port, Pietermaritzburg, and King Shaka International Airport. This makes Westown the next logical industrial development node in the region, following the gradual development of Keystone and Cato Ridge.
The warehousing and logistics precinct within Westown is particularly noteworthy, offering 80,000 square meters of platform area with bespoke solutions available on fully serviced platforms. These platforms are available for occupation from early 2025, making them an attractive option for businesses looking to establish a presence in a prime logistics location with proximity to the N3.

Furthermore, the development's 99-year Leasehold Model offers flexibility and long-term security for investors and businesses alike. This model is similar to the successful leasehold approach used in Waterfall, Midrand, ensuring that businesses can operate with confidence and stability in Westown.
