Access becomes first potential tenant at Dube

The new King Shaka International Airport must be seen as an investment in the future of the province of KwaZulu Natal, according to Garth Louden, director of Access Freight International – one of the first takers of space at the Dube Tradeport airfreight logistics building at the airport. “It is a logical step for Access,” he told FTW at a breakfast function hosted by his company recently, and intended to update the market on this air cargo development. “We already have facilities at every other port and airport in SA.” Louden was very forthright in his praise for the R8-billion development. “This airport is going to make Durban a global city,” he said. “We see it as a tremendous catalyst for KwaZulu Natal.”
