Positioned within the prestigious Cato Ridge Industrial Corridor, this 52 317 m² A-grade distribution facility offers a commanding presence in one of KwaZulu-Natal’s fastest-growing logistics nodes. Serving as the heart of inland port logistics for the province, the property provides unmatched connectivity between Pietermaritzburg and the greater Durban region, with seamless access from two dedicated N3 off-ramps. Purpose-built for high-performance operations, this centre represents a rare opportunity for large logistics and manufacturing enterprises seeking scale, efficiency, and strategic advantage.
At the core of the property is an expansive 32 555 m² warehouse engineered for maximum throughput and operational reliability. Featuring 13 m height to eaves, FM2-spec flooring, multi-level grading, and a full suite of on-grade roller doors and dock levellers, the facility is optimised for high-volume distribution and advanced manufacturing requirements. The warehouse is supported by a generous yard and vehicle-staging area, ensuring smooth traffic flow and efficient loading, even during peak operational cycles. Multiple 8 m-high roller doors further enhance accessibility and productivity.
Designed with the modern enterprise in mind, the administrative and office components offer a contemporary and welcoming environment for staff and visitors. The office and reception block balances aesthetics and functionality, while the adjoining admin block includes a gas-suppressed server room for enhanced IT security and business continuity. The facility incorporates a strong sustainability ethos, with energy-efficient lighting, green-building elements, and robust infrastructure designed for long-term operational performance.
Operational resilience is supported by a comprehensive security and services package, making this one of the safest and most secure industrial facilities in the region. Features include an 800 kVA backup power supply, high-impact concrete perimeter walling with electric fencing, five guard towers, a bulletproof guard house, 24-hour armed on-site security, and a fully integrated CCTV and LPR monitoring system (on-site and off-site). Fire protection is equally advanced, with a sprinkler installation compliant with Category 4 of ASIB 11th edition rules—ideal for high-value goods and demanding storage profiles.
The facility’s central location places key metropoles within easy reach: Pietermaritzburg (30 km), Durban Port (50 km), and Pinetown (30 km). With its dedicated boundaries, scalable land parcel for future expansion, and infrastructure tailored to high-capacity operations, this site offers an unparalleled address for manufacturing, warehousing, and distribution. For large organisations seeking a future-ready, strategically positioned logistics hub, this Cato Ridge distribution centre stands in a class of its own.
