With the improvements and expansion of our road network comes investments and job creation. As I’ve said start with the Kingston waterfront and build out.
Cascade Group Jamaica, the developer of the Kingston 876 commercial complex, is sifting through potential investors for lots that are expected to be ready for delivery in August.
Infrastructure works at the 94-acre complex, which sits at the corner of Tom Cringle Drive and Mandela Highway at Ferry, Kingston, is roughly 70 per cent complete. The complex is already home to Nestle Jamaica and more recently, Tropical Battery.
He reckons that the overpass that connects the development to the Mandela Highway will serve as a sweetener for potential investors looking for commercial space on the outskirts of Kingston.
“We are perfectly situated on the edge of Kingston with direct access to the North Coast Highway and we are also only 10 minutes away from the Kingston Wharves. The highway modification makes it an easy run coming into our development from anywhere,” the developer said.
When Cascade Group broke ground for the Nestlé operation in June 2016, Kingston 876 was projected to bring an additional 10,000 jobs to Jamaica by 2021, at least 2,000 of which were expected to come from the BPO operation.
“Nestlé brought in some of those jobs with the distribution centre and now we have Tropical Battery. I think that as the development starts to come into its own in another two years, the jobs will come, particularly from the BPO sector,” Moe said.
