E-commerce giant to launch new Cape Town depot in 2026

South African online retail giant Takealot is expanding its logistics footprint with a new fulfilment depot set to open in Cape Town next year.

The location of the new depot will be inside Inospace’s Powder Mill Park in Ndabeni, Cape Town and ties directly into Takealot Group’s broader logistics strategy

The site will officially launch on 15 January 2026, according to Inospace CEO Rael Levitt.

Takealot to launch Cape Town’s first e-commerce logistics park

Levitt announced the move on LinkedIn, describing Powder Mill as “perfectly positioned just minutes from Riverlands and major arterial routes.”

The property is about to undergo a large-scale renovation and will be repositioned as Cape Town’s first e-commerce logistics park.

“Smaller businesses can now simply store their products at Powder Mill, and if our clients want to use the Takealot platform, they will do the rest: fulfilment, delivery, and customer service through Takealot Fulfilment Services (TFS).” Levitt said.

Under the arrangement, Takealot Fulfilment Services (TFS) will handle fulfilment, delivery, and customer service. Levitt called the initiative a game-changer for local entrepreneurs who want to scale quickly without managing complex logistics.

“Teaming up with Takealot creates a powerful ecosystem where SMEs can get local space and national customer reach,” Levitt added.
