STAG African is a world-class, multi-dimensional company focusing on property development and student accommodation that operates out of Cape Town, South Africa, and has a footprint across the continent.
Our holistic approach is underpinned by our underlying focus of ensuring green skills, for green jobs, in a green economy.
While we have many years’ experience in all aspects of property development and construction, our particular area of expertise is the customised design, construction and operation of cost- and time-effective student accommodation alternatives.
Our use of innovative building technology methods is proven to unlock significant benefits for universities and their residence students.
STAG African’s business model is built around a relatively small core team of specialists in a number of design, construction and development disciplines.
We utilise best-of-breed partners in the creation of developments that deliver unprecedented value for all stakeholders. STAG African are serious roleplayers in property development across Africa and have recently been involved in an extensive array of African-based projects worth a total of almost R20-billion.
“This is the single largest infrastructure development for student accommodation ever undertaken by any of the 26 public universities in South Africa.”
Gwebinkundla Qonde, Director General of the Department of Higher Education and Training
The largest student housing project ever undertaken by a South African public university is currently under development at the University of Fort Hare (UFH). The project, developed by STAG African, is set for completion in December 2020.
