10 years with Africrest properties

A partnership built on trust, loyalty and long-term thinking

In an industry where short-term gains too often outweigh long-term relationships, true loyalty is rare. Many companies are driven by short-term financial objectives, with limited emphasis on sustained partnerships.

Africrest Properties stands apart.

From the way they develop and manage their properties to how they engage with tenants and service providers, Africrest has consistently demonstrated that sustainable success comes from building relationships on mutual respect. Their ambition to deliver the best rental experience in South Africa isn’t just a slogan – it’s visible in how they work, partner and lead. When suppliers are treated as partners/family and not as costs on paper, excellence becomes the natural outcome.

This year, Nesa Power proudly celebrates a 10-year journey with Africrest – a relationship grounded in mutual trust and loyalty.

Our partnership began with a simple portfolio assessment of 24 properties. At the time, our analysis showed that only 7 sites truly made financial and technical sense for solar PV installation. While other providers pushed to install systems across all 24 buildings, Africrest trusted our recommendation.

That philosophy still guides everything we do: when decisions are made in the genuine best interest of the customer, long-term success takes care of itself.

A decade later, that trust has translated into real impact. Nesa Power has now installed more than 35 solar PV systems across Africrest properties – all monitored and maintained under service agreements to ensure performance and reliability.

As the energy landscape continues to evolve and Africrest advances its work in addressing South Africa’s housing needs, Nesa Power remains committed to helping Africrest reduce electricity costs and strengthen resilience against grid instability.

Ten years on, this partnership remains an important reminder that when loyalty and integrity lead the way, everyone wins.
