Industrial Property to Lease in Spartan – Strategic Lease Secured at 3 Loper Avenue
Galetti Corporate Real Estate has successfully concluded a long-term industrial property to lease in Spartan, securing a high-spec logistics facility at 3 Loper Avenue in one of Gauteng’s most established industrial nodes. The transaction reinforces Spartan’s position as a preferred destination for logistics, distribution, and light industrial occupiers requiring efficiency, scale, and proximity to key transport routes.
This lease outcome reflects a data-driven approach to industrial leasing, where understanding operational flow, future growth, and logistical alignment is as critical as location and square metre requirements.
Understanding the Industrial Leasing Requirement in Spartan
At the outset, the tenant’s requirement appeared straightforward – approximately 1,000m² of industrial space. However, a deeper operational assessment revealed constraints related to fragmented warehousing, inefficient vehicle circulation, and limited scalability.
Through detailed engagement, Galetti identified that the business required a larger, consolidated facility capable of supporting throughput efficiency, streamlined distribution, and long-term expansion. This strategic reassessment ultimately led to the successful lease of a significantly larger industrial property in Spartan, aligned with both present and future operational needs.

Why Spartan Remains a Prime Industrial Location
From a leasing perspective, Spartan continues to outperform many Gauteng industrial nodes due to its strategic connectivity and established logistics ecosystem. Positioned between the R21 and key arterial routes, the area provides seamless access to OR Tambo International Airport, Isando, Pomona, and surrounding industrial corridors.
For the tenant, proximity to existing third-party logistics providers and suppliers within Spartan was a decisive factor. Relocating operations to 3 Loper Avenue materially reduces travel time, fuel expenditure, and coordination inefficiencies, directly improving operational margins.
By consolidating into a single, larger facility, the tenant benefits from:
-
Reduced per-square-metre logistics costs
-
Improved cross-dock and dispatch efficiency
-
Faster access to suppliers and transport routes
These advantages continue to underpin strong demand for industrial properties to lease in Spartan.
A 7-Year Industrial Lease Supporting Long-Term Growth
Following detailed negotiations and alignment with the landlord, Galetti successfully concluded a 7-year industrial lease. This long-term commitment signals confidence in the node, the building’s functionality, and the tenant’s growth trajectory.
It also reflects broader leasing conditions across Gauteng, where demand for modern, well-located industrial space continues to exceed supply, particularly within logistics-focused nodes.
Operational Consolidation – Moving from Germiston to Spartan
Prior to this transaction, the tenant operated from two separate industrial units of 596m² each in the Dakota Precinct, Germiston. While adequate in isolation, the split configuration constrained operational efficiency and limited scalability.
The move to a single Spartan facility delivers tangible operational benefits, including:
-
Centralised warehousing and distribution under one roof
-
Improved internal workflow and stock management
-
A professional office environment for management teams
-
Enhanced staff and driver amenities
This consolidation mirrors a wider occupier trend across Gauteng’s industrial market, where businesses are prioritising efficiency, location quality, and long-term operational certainty.
