Cargo City bursting at the seams

The creation by Transworld Cargo of a “Cargo City” complex in Windhoek’s southern Industrial area has met a need for quality warehouse and office space in the Namibian capital, says Olaf Liebich of Transworld. The 5 800-sqm warehouse, which opened late in 2012, is fully let and most of the 2 000 sqm of logistics-related office space is also taken, he said. Two of the biggest tenants in the warehouse provide an interesting window on the Namibian economy. One supplies solar panels for home and business use, while the other is a wholesaler importing foodstuffs mainly from Germany.
