The Strategic Economic Infrastructure Investment Programme (SEIIP) of the Gauteng Provincial Government makes provision for the establishment of an Industrial Development Zone (IDZ).
In 2002, the Minister of Trade and Industry designated three pieces of land totalling 725 hectares, to this purpose. The land is located in and around the OR Tambo International Airport (ORTIA), which was selected due to its strategic role in logistics and trade within the Gauteng province of South Africa.
The Gauteng Industrial Development Zone (GIDZ) Development Company was formed to develop and operate the OR Tambo International Airport Industrial Development Zone.
The purpose of the OR Tambo International Airport Industrial Development Zone is to provide an efficient import and export duty-free zone for high value added, light manufactured goods that are exported via air freight.
The subsidiary’s vision is to contribute towards the transformation, development and growth of post-minerals extraction processing and beneficiation industry sectors.
Through this IDZ Development Programme, the Gauteng Growth and Development Agency (GGDA) subsidiary, an agency of the Gauteng Department of Economic Development (GDED) under the Gauteng Provincial Government, aims to provide a destination for strategic investments from and within export manufacturing industries.
