Construction will commence in November 2023 with a scheduled completion and occupation by mid-2024.
“We are incredibly proud to welcome Solar MD to Richmond Park. We are looking forward to continuing working with the Solar MD team to bring their vision for a bespoke facility where business and environmental responsibility are woven seamlessly together,” notes Gerrit van den Berg, Head of Developments: Western Cape at Atterbury Property, which is developing Richmond Park on behalf the property’s shareholders, including Old Mutual.
Solar MD’s headquarters will be located in the Southern Precinct of Richmond Park, adjacent to Rubicon, Takealot Pickup Point and in close proximity to WeBuyCars and Brights.
