Description: Nairobi Gate Industrial Park is the first SEZ in East Africa that has a fully integrated customs control area. The class-leading industrial park is ideally situated on the Eastern Bypass, providing easy access to key arterial roads and ‘Up-Country’ Kenya via Thika Road and the Southern Bypass. Phase 1 is set on 100 acres and is designed for ultra-modern logistics, light-industrial warehousing and distribution centers, bringing a unique ‘build to suit’ concept to Nairobi. Offering both speculative and bespoke property for rent or purchase, the park provides grade-A flexible space, great access, robust infrastructure, as well as generous loading facilities and volumetric capacity.
