The Zest Weg Group has moved into new fit for purpose premises in Omuramba Road, Montague Gardens. A move that Gary Daines, the group’s sales and marketing director, says has positioned the group for robust future growth as the Cape Town team takes advantage of the many opportunities coming to the fore in the area.
The new Cape office features 3300 square metres under roof and incorporates a training centre/auditorium accommodating about 70 people, warehousing, a drives and automation service centre, administrative offices and a staff canteen. The size and layout of the site has greatly improved logistical flow, with ample space for goods trucks to park and unload.

“Customers are already benefitting from access to an increased stockholding and a broader range of products, as well as from the enhanced training and meeting room facilities,” says Daines. “Although our Cape office is geared to serve the local drives and automation market, it is also being strategically prepared to contribute to the growth of the entire group. In addition to the new premises, Zest Weg Group’s substantial investment into corporate growth in the area includes the establishment a few years ago of a dedicated generator set manufacturing facility and the EML warehouse, both in Epping.”
The group is a leading supplier of low, medium and high voltage electric motors, variable speed drives, soft starters, switchgear, transformers, MCC’s, containerised substations, diesel generator sets and co-generation and energy solutions, as well as electrical and instrumentation engineering and project management services in Africa.
It is the South African based subsidiary of global motor manufacturer, Weg. Group companies include Zest Electric Motors, Shaw Controls, EML and EnI Electrical.
The Zest Weg Group operates a strategically situated network of branches and distributors offering pre- and post-sales support, as well as parts supply throughout Africa.
