Coega

The Coega Special Economic Zone (SEZ), established in 1999 and 9 003 ha in extent,[1] is situated near Gqeberha (Port Elizabeth) in the Eastern Cape province of South Africa.

The Coega SEZ is a phased development around industry clusters with Custom Control Areas dedicated for export-oriented manufacturing for companies located in the zone.

Coega offers a platform for global exports by attracting foreign and local investment in manufacturing industries.
