COMMERCIAL PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT IN SOUTH AFRICA
HISTORY
Since our founding in 1989, we have established ourselves as a company with a strong entrepreneurial and independent spirit which we owe to the ethos of private ownership and a hands-on approach from shareholders and staff. After making great strides in commercial development, we expanded the scope of our business to include residential development with Sable Homes, commercial building management carried out by Abreal, and filling station development and management via Oilgro. Our expansion into the many and varied spheres of property development gives us a 360 degree insight into the dynamic and evolving property industry. Abland, together with its associated companies, has been providing a fully integrated property development, asset management and property management service for more than 25 years.

Pivotal Property Fund is an internally managed property investment and development company, listed on JSE main board, with an A-grade portfolio of completed, income producing properties and developments. Pivotal focuses on creating sustainable value for investors by achieving above average growth in the capital value of its portfolio.
Property Funds
The company’s strategic partnerships and joint ventures with Abland will ensure a continued pipeline of high quality, value added development opportunities that meet the company’s investment criteria. A mutually beneficial relationship exists between Abland and Pivotal, with Abland’s developments forming an asset pipeline

for the fund. Pivotal in turn creates further development opportunities for Abland, whilst delivering consistent growth.
Private Equity Investment
Social Investment
Pivotal Property Fund’s steadily growing market value allows investors to participate directly in the capital growth of a professionally managed portfolio. The fund focuses solely on A-grade properties in the retail, commercial and industrial sectors.
P D
POD Property Fund is an unlisted property fund with a focus on high-end, premium developments with values below ±R200 million. As Abland produces developments below the R200 million value mark, POD will be the ideal place to house these properties in order to create optimum value growth for investors. Since it is not a
strategic imperative of many of POD’s development partners to hold assets for the long term, POD creates a convenient exit mechanism for development partners and shareholders. POD is built on the knowledge gained from assembling Pivotal and resulted in the creation of a tailor-made fund that will serve POD’s partners and investors well, both in terms of their business requirements and the preservation of asset value.
In order to take full advantage of the opportunities offered north of South Africa’s borders, Abland established Abland Africa which is responsible for sourcing and undertaking work in a variety of countries on the African continent. Abland Africa is open to viable opportunities across the continent, but for the moment has concentrated its efforts on Tanzania, Kenya, Uganda, Nigeria, Mozambique and Namibia. As the company gains more traction in these markets and develops its understanding of others, it will actively pursue property development opportunities in other countries. Abland has also established the Mara Diversified Property Fund – a property fund set up specifically as a holding vehicle for assets developed by Abland Africa.

GREEN BUILDING PRINCIPLES
TURNKEY DEVELOPMENT PROCESS
At Abland, we believe in that sustainable building is the way forward. We take the principles of green building seriously

that is tailor made to suit their specific needs and requirements.
As members of the Green Building Council of South Africa (GBCSA), we are committed to creating a better built environment. Through our Strategic Green Building Philosophy, we apply and implement key energy efficiency principles in all aspects of our projects and we have successfully implemented a number of these, together with other green building measures, in our projects. While the benefits to the environment almost go without saying, there are also numerous benefits to our clients – cost savings through energy efficiency, healthier buildings and environments to work in, and assets which are futureproofed. Clients can benefit from Abland’s knowledge and expertise and have a greener building which contributes to a better environment. Abland stays abreast of the latest technologies and research in energy saving, sustainability and carbon footprint reduction. As a market leader in this field, we ensure that our clients make informed decisions about the green building measures they wish to implement. Each new project is approached with an eye on energy saving, sustainability and the commercial benefits that can be achieved by means of payback period analysis. A number of our buildings have already achieved Green Star SA ratings from the GBCSA. Recently rated four star buildings include Alice Lane Phases One, Two and Three (70 000m2 in total); Nedbank Lakeview (22 000m2); Monte Circle Phase One (5 500m²) and Rosebank Towers (25 000m²). Current developments being submitted for Green Star SA ratings include Loftus Park (20 000m2) and Monte Circle Phase Two (4 400m²). Towers (23,000m²), Loftus Park (45,000m²) and Monte Circle (50,000m²).

No building or development exists in isolation. Each has a relationship to its surrounding buildings and to the urban environment. At Abland, we believe in the sustainable transformation of the built environment. We conceptualise each development we undertake with the surrounding urban fabric in mind, with a view to contributing positively to the immediate neighbourhood rather than standing in isolation.

Integrating with the urban environment
PRECINCTS
We aim for each building and development we create to be an asset to its neighbourhood – and to go even further than the boundaries of each property in an effort to preserve quality urban environments that users will find attractive, comfortable and well cared-for. Abland presently has many urban precincts under development around the country. The design of the majority of these precincts is based on the principles of mixed-use, walkable and well-connected neighbourhoods that are coherently planned. They are strongly driven by the importance of creating a sense of place, which is formed by the uniqueness of each location and the careful planning of public and private domains.

Mixed use precincts allow for the urban densification which is now a planning imperative in South Africa’s urban areas, but create 24-hour environments in which a variety of uses co-exist. A properly planned and managed precinct is both a public and a private asset. It promotes quality of life within a quality address, ensuring investment sustainability with higher and more stable Loftus Park, Pretoria
