Our business

Engel & Völkers first took root in our fertile South African soil in 2000 with the establishment of a license in Cape Town under Christian Völkers. In 2002 the roll out into the rest of the country commenced under Niël Cronje and Mathias Bode, resulting in the establishment of two master licenses in the country one denoting the Western Cape (Engel & Völkers Western Cape) and the other covering the rest of South Africa (Engel & Völkers South Africa) which falls under CEO Niël Cronje.

The headquarters of Engel & Völkers South Africa is proudly nestled in the heart of Pretoria. In a very short space of time Engel & Völkers grew to 47 shops, 2 commercial licenses, 5 rental divisions, 11 New Development arms and 2 agricultural sections and has shown no signs of slowing down.
