Shaaz Moosa, a representative of Sultex Investments, expressed that the Giba Business Estate will serve as a catalyst for both seasoned investors and budding entrepreneurs, providing them with crucial opportunities for development. The sentiment was echoed by eThekwini Mayor Mxolisi Kaunda, who emphasized that such catalytic projects are designed to ignite a domino effect of growth and progress.

Mayor Kaunda stated, "The Giba Business Estate is much like Cornubia and Riverhorse Valley to the north of the city and the proposed Automotive Supplier Park to the south." This project aligns with the city's broader 10 Point Port City Industrial Plan, strategically focused on re-industrializing the city and fostering sustainable economic growth.
