Industrial Development Zones (IDZs) are specific areas designated within Spatial
Development Initiatives (SDIs), aimed at promoting economic growth and industrial
development. These zones are located either in ports or near airports and are part of a

competitive with modern, world-class industrial zones.

Spatial Development Initiatives (SDIs/SEZS) are large-scale development programmes
designed to created and support development corridors across parts of South Africa,
and sometimes into neighbouring countries. These corridors focus on improving
infrastructure, particularly transport, to promote economic growth in targeted areas.
