Platinum Square is a fully-let, income-producing shopping centre that’s already been thriving for over 13 years. Anchored by some of South Africa’s biggest retail brands and backed by one of the country’s top retail developers, this is the kind of property that’s usually locked behind institutional gates.
Now, you get to walk straight through.
This centre in Rustenburg is home to names you probably already shop with:
Checkers Hyper, Shoprite, Capitec, Mr Price Home, Ocean Basket, Pep Home, and more.
It’s got the foot traffic. It’s got the track record. And it has a projected 15.9% IRR over five years*
Here are 6 reasons we think Platinum Square deserves a look.
There’s no waiting period here. Platinum Square has been trading for over 13 years with leases in place, strong occupancy, and an income history to back it all up.
This is our first foray into retail property, and it’s a deliberate one. Until now, our focus has been residential, industrial and student assets, but we’ve been eyeing this space for a while.
Retail gives investors access to a new kind of stability: brand-backed income, long-term leases, and a direct line to South Africa’s consumer economy.
One of the smartest things about retail property? It doesn’t stand still.
Rental escalations built into most of the leases mean that tenants agree upfront to pay slightly more rent each year. It’s a standard practice in commercial property, and it helps grow the value of the investment over time, even without big market shifts.
Shoprite has just signed on, adding a major anchor tenant with its own escalation structure which strengthens the income outlook and boosts future resale value.
Dorpstraat is also the active asset and facilities manager. That means they’re responsible for keeping the property running smoothly, tenants satisfied, and day-to-day operations on track.
In retail property, good management directly affects tenant retention, rental performance and overall value.
