15 Properties To Let in Glen Marais, Kempton Park, Gauteng

Glen Marais generally offers light industrial units, mini-warehouse space, workshop premises and small distribution facilities suited to businesses needing access to Kempton Park, Pomona and the R21 airport corridor. Typical options include warehouse-and-office combinations with roller-shutter access, service yards where available, and practical space for storage, light manufacturing, contractors and airport-linked logistics.

Across our current Glen Marais industrial listings, warehouse rentals run at R60 to R99 per m² (10th to 90th percentile), with a median net asking rental of R75 per m². Once rates and levies are included, the typical gross asking level is about R79 per m², so tenants should compare quotes on a like-for-like gross basis before judging value.

Yes, Glen Marais can suit light logistics, distribution and airport-linked warehousing, particularly for businesses that need access to OR Tambo, the R21 and Kempton Park without being in a heavy industrial node. It is less of a pure manufacturing location, so companies with noisy, high-impact or heavy-production requirements should check zoning, yard access, truck movement and power capacity carefully before committing. For last-mile distribution, service logistics and smaller warehousing, the area can work well where residential catchment, staff access and airport proximity matter.

Across the Glen Marais warehouse properties we currently list, eaves run from 8.0 to 15.0 m, so the area can accommodate conventional stacking and some higher-clearance operations. Loading access is typically on-grade roller-shutter access, with dock levellers limited in the stock we cover. The buildings are generally older warehouse stock, so tenants should check yard depth, truck turning, door height and floor condition before committing.

Glen Marais competes as a suburban-edge industrial option against heavier nodes such as Pomona, Spartan and Isando, where airport-linked logistics, larger yards and truck routing usually carry more weight. Across our listings, Glen Marais is at R60 to R99/m² (10th to 90th percentile), median R75/m² net asking, with about R79/m² gross including rates and levies. For a tenant needing scale, Pomona or Isando will often screen first; for light industrial, trade-counter or smaller distribution uses, Glen Marais can offer a practical balance of rental, staff access and customer reach.

In Glen Marais, tenants should treat power capacity as building-specific. Small offices and retail units are typically set up for standard commercial use, while light-industrial or service-based premises are more likely to offer three-phase power. Capacity will depend on the incoming supply, distribution board, existing load allocation and any landlord-approved upgrades already completed. Before signing, confirm the available amperage, whether three-phase is live at the unit, and how backup power or generator connection is handled in that specific property.

Glen Marais can accommodate trucks where premises have direct access off Great North Road, Veld Street or routes feeding R21 access, but it is better suited to local distribution, service vehicles and deliveries than heavy industrial logistics. Yard space is typically attached to specific properties as loading aprons, rear yards or hardstand areas, so turning circles, gate widths and loading flow should be assessed property by property before committing.

Glen Marais gives an industrial business quick access to OR Tambo and the wider Kempton Park logistics belt, with practical road links via the R21 and nearby arterial routes. It suits companies that need airport-adjacent distribution, light industrial operations or supplier access without being buried in the heavier industrial nodes. The area also has a useful mix of surrounding residential suburbs, retail services and established business infrastructure, which helps with staff access and daily operations.

Glen Marais is better suited to light industrial users and service businesses than heavy manufacturing, so tenants needing large yards, high power supply or extensive truck staging may find the usable stock limited. The area’s suburban character means truck movements can be less efficient, especially where routes feed through local retail and residential traffic before reaching the R21. For companies that need immediate access to the deeper industrial networks around Isando, Spartan or Jet Park, Glen Marais can feel one step removed from the core logistics grid.
