The Caltex fuel forecourt, which originally opened in 1980, has been rebuilt and expanded and now features the new 20/20 Caltex imagery. FreshStop Brits is a new store that offers customers a wide selection of fresh fruit and vegetables, a range of groceries, and a variety of Grab n Go snacks and refreshments. In addition, it offers freshly baked goods as well as savoury and light cooked meals such as hamburgers, steak and chips, etc.

There is in-store Absa ATM, hygienic and excellent toilet facilities, as well as a Lavazza coffee bar with a full-service barista to offer exceptional coffee. The relaxed sit-down area located on the second floor offers free Wi-Fi, newspapers and recharge facilities for customers' phones and computers. It is the ideal spot to relax, perk up on some coffee and good food, and surf the internet or get some work done.

The Snyders family, which owns the property, is now back on site after letting it out as a motor dealership and Caltex filling station for the last 23 years. Casper Snyders, the store retailer, says, "We are excited to be back on the family site and the entire family is looking forward to serving and looking after the needs of our customers."

There is also an opportunity for additional businesses to be a part of this dynamic location. A PG Glass is currently located on the premises and additional floor space is available for other tenants.
