Heriot REIT Limited (JSE:HET) is considering bidding for the troubled Safari Investments RSA Limited (JSE:SAR). Heriot's Chief Executive Officer Steven Herring said, "the company was considering options through which it could take control of Safari, be it through acquiring a majority stake or all of Safari". Heriot and Safari's property assets were complementary to each other, Herring said.

Herring said Heriot was evaluating several opportunities and "Safari has been of interest, but whether that progresses remains to be seen".
