The Department of Trade and Industry recently introduced its Special Economic Zones (SEZ) Policy, which the President enacted into law. The premise is that the act and policy will transform regional industrial development in South Africa. The Nkomazi Special Economic Zone or Nkomazi SEZ is the axis of economic integration between the South African provinces of Mpumalanga, Gauteng and Limpopo and the independent states of Swaziland and Mozambique. Strategically positioned in the border town of Komatipoort, the Nkomazi SEZ offers the investor a multi-sector base of operations along the Maputo Development Corridor, which runs through Southern Africa’s most productive regions.
