Concor, one of South Africa’s leading infrastructure and construction companies, is building positive momentum with renewed strength and a clear trajectory for future growth. Despite ongoing external pressures in the market, the business has made meaningful progress in strengthening its position and creating a stable outlook for the future.
Concor CEO, Jerome Govender, confirms that Concor’s project teams have secured several new contracts, strengthening the company’s order book for the next two to three years. These include two significant renewable energy projects, both EPC contracts that encompass the delivery of the civil and electrical balance of plant works. The De Aar 2 Wind Farm project is scheduled for completion in October 2026, while the Karreebosch Wind Farm project is due for completion in February 2027.
The South African National Roads Agency Limited (SANRAL) has also awarded two contracts to Concor for road improvements: the enhancement of National Road R101 Section 8 from Bela Bela to Modimolle and the improvement of National Route N11 Section 9 between Hendrina Power Station and the N4 Interchange. These projects have durations of 30 months and 33 months respectively.
In the built environment sector, Concor has secured the contract for the construction of an office block at 3 Parks Boulevard. The project includes a three-storey West wing, a four-storey East wing and four basement levels, with completion scheduled for the first quarter of 2026.
Another exciting development for the company is the award of the Newmarket Mixed-Use Housing Development Phase 1 contract in the Western Cape. This project includes the development and construction of 375 social housing units, 575 open market housing units and approximately 500 m² of retail space.
“These new project awards reflect the market’s confidence in Concor’s ability to deliver quality projects on time, within budget and safely. I am pleased that they also provide a platform for Concor to contribute meaningfully to job creation and local supplier development,” Govender says.
He adds that Concor is actively pursuing additional medium-term opportunities, with strategies in place to manage any remaining challenges. The company remains cautiously optimistic about the road ahead.
Govender credits the progress made to the support of Concor’s shareholders, the Board, senior management and employees across the business. “Our collective efforts over recent months have provided a stable platform for us to move forward”
“With this solid foundation in place, we are well-positioned to deliver on our current commitments and explore new opportunities with confidence,” he concludes.
