Frequently asked questions
Which industries need commercial space in Cape Town right now?
As of 2026-08-24, Financial services, Retail & consumer show the highest concentration of elevated space-need signals among the 28 companies PropScient Commercial scores in Cape Town. Rankings change when a newer scoring run, built on newer public business-activity evidence, is published.
How is occupier demand in Cape Town measured?
Every company is scored by the Space-Need Index from public, ethically sourced business-activity evidence. 'Elevated' means the company's score clears a fixed threshold set by the index. Separately, every score carries a High, Medium or Low confidence grade that says how much evidence stands behind it, so a company can show elevated signals while its confidence is still Medium or Low. Both are deliberately conservative when public evidence is thin.
