“I am proud of the achievements of our dedicated team. Our unwavering commitment to investing in cutting-edge infrastructure and people, coupled with our deep understanding of the real estate sector, has allowed us, as Broll Property Group, to play a vital role as a catalyst for economic growth and job creation not only in South Africa but across the African continent,” explains Horne.
