Local context

Working in Epping Industria

We service Epping Industria 1 and 2, Epping Fresh Produce Market and the surrounding blocks of Epping Industria, Cape Town, with access off the N2 and N7 and M7. Mediterranean summers with strong south-easters carry dust and salt onto condenser coils, and winter rain drives condensation risk at dock openings.
