The $15-million deal would see a 3.2 ha prop- erty within the business park transferred to China-based agricultural food manufacturer New Hope Group next month, after which the construction of an animal farm and food manufacturing plant would start.
Basil Read Developments started construc-tion of the four-phase, R390-million Klipriver Business Park development in 2009, Basil Read Developments MD Des Hughes said.
The development, located on the farm Waterval with a development land size of 118.9 ha, covered the R59/R550 interchange, with access to major road networks, such as the N1 and the N3, as well as a rail network.
It was expected to house 96 saleable erven and provide a “superior high-tech working environment”, he added.
The business park, which would include on-site security, an adjacent police station and full access control and perimeter security, was to be managed by consulting property manager Oakwood Properties.
Phase 1 of the project comprised 48 fully serviced properties spanning 52 ha and included fibre-optic communication systems, landscaping and security.
A Paramount Trailers manufacturing facility was one of the seven occupants, Hughes com-mented.
The development of the remaining three phases would be market driven.
