TONGAAT HULETT ACTUALISING VALUE
FOR THE LAST 20 YEARS
Durban is one of the fastest
growing cities in Africa and it
is the quest of the eThekwini
Municipality to make this the
most caring and livable city on
the continent by 2030.
ENDORSEMENT OF A NOTABLE
INVESTMENT DESTINATION
This is without doubt a bold, though an
entirely achievable vision.
ENGAGE WITH US
We are intent on accelerating the
pace of development, making Durban
more attractive and accessible to
investors and to fast-tracking local
economic growth, thus becoming
the stimulus for meaningful and
sustainable employment creation.
We are indeed fortunate to have in
place a solid foundation from which
to embark upon this development
intensification initiative. Durban is
home to South Africa’s second largest
economy and the busiest port in Africa,
is the country’s top domestic tourist
destination, has a strong agricultural
sector and a rapidly expanding IT
environment, all complemented by an
enviable lifestyle and an idyllic subtropical climate.
24
His Worship, the Mayor of eThekwini Municipality,
Durban, Cllr James Nxumalo
This is the gateway to subSaharan Africa, offering first-world
infrastructure, excellent investment
opportunities and a major multi-modal
logistics platform.
A central function of the eThekwini
Municipality is to make available
infrastructure which will support the
growth of our local economy, the
fruits of which have afforded access
to additional tracts of land, allowing
for the further development of
industrial and commercial services
and amenities and - importantly residential facilities. This is especially
evident in the key growth node of the
Dube TradePort, Africa’s first purpose-built aerotropolis and home to
King Shaka International Airport - equipped to land the Airbus A380
strategically important Northern Urban
Development Corridor, inclusive of
such prioritised projects as Cornubia,
Dube TradePort and Bridge City, as well
as a host of private sector residential
and mixed-use schemes.
We do concede that the ultimate
realisation of our vision of growing the
economy and meeting the qualityof-life aspirations of our citizens and
investors is wholly dependent on our
ability to work effectively in partnership
with the private sector, Government
and other stakeholders. Working
together, planned, efficient and
accelerated development becomes the
reality we all desire.
In this regard, the city’s public-private
partnership with Tongaat Hulett is
assisting to facilitate the economic
and urban integration of formerly
marginalised areas to the north of the
city. This is a private company which
is actively implementing a property
development approach which is
integral to the economic growth of
our region; an approach which is
contributing to increased investment,
infrastructure and employment creation
in key areas around Umhlanga, Ballito
and King Shaka International Airport.
I can safely say that this has grown
to become a partnership of choice
for the sustainable socio-economic
advancement of infrastructure, housing
and employment and the overall local
economy.
Now Tongaat Hulett is pursuing a
development a little to the north
of Umhlanga and just 25km from
the Central Business District which
provides for integration between
urban development and the natural
environment. This is known as the
Sibaya Development.
This development is creating a new
urban identity and way of life for
residents and visitors alike, instituting
a unique work-live-and-play lifestyle
on our city’s doorstep.
Ethekwini Municipality applauds this
initiative and regards it as a crucial
driver in the pursuit of the development
of the region, the growth of the local
economy and a catalyst for vital
regional employment creation.
This partnership is a reminder that little
is possible working in isolation. On
behalf of all the people of eThekwini,
I am pleased to endorse the active
support by several like-minded
organisations, such as Dube TradePort
Corporation, Trade & Investment
KwaZulu-Natal and Tourism KwaZuluNatal. The Municipality, through its
various departments, such as Durban
Tourism and Investment Promotion,
will continue to play a leading role in
positioning our City for sustainable
growth. By drawing on the skills and
complementary services of all these
players, I am confident that Sibaya
and other socio-economic projects
taking shape in our Northern Urban
Development Corridor will give
considerable impetus to the economic
growth of our region.
I wish all those involved every success
in the promotion of and investment in
the Sibaya Development.
Cllr James Nxumalo
Mayor of eThekwini Municipality,
Durban

The continent is the second fastest
growing region in the world.
South Africa straddles the southern-most
point of Africa and is the continent’s
industrial and financial powerhouse. The
country is a member of the BRICS (Brazil,
Russia, India, China, South Africa) group of
major emerging economies and a gateway
to the Southern African Development
Community (SADC) and Africa. South Africa,
with a stable democratic Government and
political environment, drives economic
growth with its first-world infrastructure,
sophisticated financial systems, logistics and
technology.
South Africa’s second largest economy vests
in KwaZulu-Natal, a region boasting two of
Africa’s major seaports, which handle more
than 63% of all South African sea cargo. The
Province is home to Dube TradePort, the heart
of an emerging aerotropolis, centered around
King Shaka International Airport, 30km north
of central Durban and forming part of a
regional economic development strategy to
unlock economic growth, job creation and
investment.
The city of Durban (eThekwini Municipality)
is South Africa’s second most important
economic region, with the port of Durban at
its core. Primary economic activities include
manufacturing, finance, transport and trade.
Stunningly beautiful Durban, ‘The warmest
place to be’, is the country’s leading domestic
tourist destination, attracting increasing
international attention with its year-round
warm weather and sub-tropical climate.
The development provides for an
inter-connected mixed-use - though
predominantly upmarket residential
- lifestyle, maximising unique natural
conditions, whilst remaining responsive
to environmental sensitivities. The vision
is for a compact urban development,
enhancing sustainability by reducing the
spatial footprint of the development, reinforcing the natural landscape with open
space and reflecting a departure from
conventional urban sprawl.
