Sumitomo is a single tenanted warehousing and distribution facility with newly constructed office section, located in
the well-established and desirable industrial node of Jet Park situated just to the West of OR Tambo International
Airport. The node is very well suited for warehousing and distribution operations due to its accessibility and location
within the N12, R21 and R24 triangle, allowing for easy access to all regions within Gauteng. The property itself
enjoys good eave heights with full sprinkler installation, and the building is well located on the site to maximize yard
area. A new warehouse roof has recently been installed and all warehouse lighting replaced with energy efficient
light fittings, which should significantly reduce the ongoing maintenance and operational expenses.
