It will also accommodate market-driven and affordable housing opportunities that will include 31,900 square metres to be used for residential purposes.

The project, which will be in phases, is projected to provide 5,239 jobs in the construction phase as well as 19,000 indirect and induced jobs, Financial Street gathered.

Cape Town city officials said Amazon would be the anchor tenant, opening a base of operations on the continent.

This development is coming a week after Twitter announced Ghana as its Africa operations headquarters.
