This funding will fuel TRIFIC SEZ’s growth, allowing them to acquire and renovate a 14,975 square meter office tower.

Additionally, two new Grade A office towers boasting a combined 76,800 sqm of leasable space will be developed.

Tenants will enjoy a vibrant business ecosystem within the wider Two Rivers precinct, offering residential areas, restaurants, shops, and entertainment.

“We’re proud to partner with Centum, a reputable investment group, on this project,” said Warren van der Merwe, managing partner at Vantage Capital.
