Warehouse for Rent

1,000 Sqm Secured Logistics Hub
6km to Port, 5km to JNIA, Borehole + Genset + Mezzanine

Industrial Property Development: Secure, spacious, and ready for immediate occupancy

Industrial Property: An exceptional opportunity has arisen for importers, distributors, e-commerce fulfilment centres, and manufacturing support operations seeking a secure, modern, and highly accessible facility in Dar es Salaam. This newly constructed 1,000 square metre warehouse, comprising a substantial ground floor and a light-weight mezzanine level, offers a rare combination of operational efficiency, strategic connectivity, and built-in resilience.

Situated within a fully walled and gated compound, the property has been engineered to minimise logistical friction. Its location delivers quantifiable advantages: approximately 6 kilometres to the Dar es Salaam Port, 5 kilometres to Julius Nyerere International Airport, and 6 kilometres to the Dar es Salaam City Centre. This triangular proximity drastically reduces drayage costs, customs clearance delays, and last-mile delivery times, placing your supply chain at the heart of Tanzania’s commercial capital.

Deconstructing the 1,000 Sqm Dual-Level Storage Solution

Unlike conventional single-volume godowns, this facility maximises cubic utilisation. The ground floor provides high-clearance, column-optimised space suitable for heavy goods, palletised cargo, forklift manoeuvrability, and bulk storage. Complementing this is a dedicated mezzanine floor, purpose-built for light-weight storage, inventory administration, quality control sorting, or value-added packaging.

This dual-level configuration effectively allows tenants to separate high-velocity goods from slow-moving stock, or to create a distinct operational office and stock-counting zone without sacrificing valuable ground-level warehousing space. The interior, as visible in the mezzanine photographs, benefits from excellent natural ventilation, steel-truss roofing for thermal efficiency, and robust flooring capable of sustained commercial use.

Security & Infrastructure

Operational downtime is costly. This warehouse has been specified to ensure uninterrupted performance.

High Security Perimeter: The entire plot is enclosed by a high security fence with a fortified main gate, complemented by a dedicated guard house. This provides controlled access, 24-hour surveillance capability, and peace of mind for high-value inventory.
Independent Water Supply: A private borehole guarantees a consistent water supply, independent of municipal fluctuations – a critical feature for staff welfare, facility maintenance, and certain industrial processes.
Uninterrupted Power: A backup genset installation point is provided, ensuring your operations, lighting, and security systems remain functional during grid interruptions. The property is provisioned for industrial power requirements.
Staff Amenities: Modern, hygienic toilet facilities and a functional guard house demonstrate that staff welfare and operational professionalism have been prioritised from the design stage.
Generous Yard & Manoeuvrability: The expansive concreted yard offers ample space for 40-foot container articulation, truck turning, and simultaneous loading/offloading at multiple roller-shutter doors. The aerial view confirms superior vehicular circulation – no reversing bottlenecks.
Location Highlights: Measured in Kilometres, Valued in Hours Saved. Logistics is a game of kilometres and minutes. This location converts geography into profit.
Approx. 6km to Dar es Salaam Port: Ideal for clearing and forwarding agents, importers of electronics, building materials, FMCG, and automotive spares. Reduce port-to-warehouse transfer to under 30 minutes in off-peak traffic.
Approx. 5km to Julius Nyerere International Airport: Perfect for air-freight consolidators, pharmaceutical distributors, perishable goods handlers, and high-value cargo requiring rapid airside access.
Approx. 6km to Dar es Salaam City Centre: Provides immediate access to the central business district, Kariakoo market, and Upanga commercial hubs for efficient distribution and client servicing.
This positioning places you equidistant from sea, air, and urban markets – a trifecta rarely found in a single, ready-to-occupy property.

Who Will Benefit Most From This Facility?

This warehouse is optimised for discerning tenants who require more than four walls:

Regional Distributors & Wholesalers needing a central deconsolidation point.
E-commerce & Last-Mile Logistics Companies requiring a secure fulfilment centre close to customers.
Construction & Building Materials Suppliers needing a hard-stand yard and covered storage.
NGOs & Aid Organisations requiring bonded, auditable, and secure humanitarian storage.
Light Assembly & Value-Addition Enterprises seeking to combine storage with mezzanine-level processing.

If your business measures success in stock accuracy, dispatch speed, and inventory security, this property warrants immediate inspection.

Viewing & Commercial Terms

The property is offered on flexible lease terms with competitive rates reflective of its premium specification and location. Early engagement is advised, as modern warehouses with mezzanine capacity, borehole water, and genuine port proximity within Dar es Salaam are in exceptionally limited supply.

Do not delay your expansion plans with substandard, poorly located alternatives. Secure a facility that enhances your corporate image and operational capability.

All documentation, including site plans and precise coordinates, is available upon enquiry.

Operational Flexibility Built In

The room mix supports multiple business models. Operate as a conventional hotel with front-desk service and food-and-beverage outlets. Shift toward extended-stay apartments for medical staff, project teams, or remote workers. Lease individual floors or blocks to specialised operators. The ground-level restaurant and upper-level bar create independent revenue streams that can serve both in-house guests and the wider Msasani catchment. Sea-view positioning on the highest floors further differentiates pricing tiers. Because the building is already substantially advanced, an experienced operator can move from acquisition to soft opening faster than a from-scratch build would allow.

Immediate Operational Readiness with Zero Compromise on Security

In Dar es Salaam, many warehouses require months of civil works to become functional. This property is complete, fenced, and serviced. The combination of a dedicated guard house, fully walled perimeter, and expansive concrete yard solves the three most common complaints of tenants: pilferage, muddy yards during the long rains, and lack of staff security. Your goods can be insured at more favourable premiums due to the demonstrable security infrastructure. For businesses handling high-value FMCG, beverages, or branded goods, this security profile is non-negotiable and often costs millions to retrofit. Here, it is included.

Quantifiable Location Economics

Most warehouses advertise as “strategically located” without providing metrics. This one provides verifiable distances that translate into daily savings. Being 6km from the port means a single truck can complete two additional port runs per day compared to facilities in outlying areas like Kibaha or Mbagala. At an average transport cost of TZS 250,000 per 20ft container trip, this represents potential savings exceeding TZS 15 million monthly for high-volume importers. The 5km proximity to JNIA similarly allows for same-day airfreight clearance and delivery, a critical differentiator for time-sensitive pharmaceutical and electronics distributors. You are not just renting space; you are buying back time and fuel.

1,000 Sqm of Intelligent Design, Not Just Empty Volume

The market is saturated with basic sheds. This facility offers 1,000 sqm of usable intelligence. The inclusion of a light-weight mezzanine floor is a deliberate commercial advantage, effectively giving you a two-storey operation within a single lease. Instead of paying for separate office space elsewhere, your inventory managers, quality controllers, and administrative staff can operate directly above the stock, improving supervision and reducing shrinkage. The high-security fence, independent borehole, and genset readiness mean you incur zero additional CAPEX on security upgrades or water storage tanks. It is a plug-and-play logistics hub, compliant with international storage audits required by many multinational tenants and NGOs
