Century 21 South Africa is proud to announce the awarding of the Benoni franchise to Emile Grobbelaar.

As we grow our national footprint we are humbled by the quality of franchisees that are joining our family. Emile has the very best experience in the property industry having "worked the trenches", so to speak, by starting as an estate agent. We believe that it is helpful for franchisees to have acted as estate agents at some time so that they can understand what their estate agents require from them.

Benoni is a critical area so close to the O.R. Tambo International Airport and within the major industrial node of Dunswart where many international companies represented in South Africa, including Lever Brothers and Colgate Palmolive have their headquarters.

From a residential point of view, Benoni is a superb area for suburban living with great schools, great shopping and recreational facilities and close to major highways and routes into areas like Sandton and the Johannesburg CBD. Benoni is described as a "leafy" suburb, has some featured natural lakes and two prime golf courses.

We wish Emile all the best and he is constantly reminded that the full might of Century 21's 8000 offices in 73 countries is there to support him by delivering "top draw" property experiences for any buyer or seller.
