Randburg is an area located in the Gauteng province of South Africa. Formerly a separate municipality, its administration devolved to the newly created City of Johannesburg Metropolitan Municipality, along with neighbouring Sandton and Roodepoort, in the late 1990s.

Reading Randburg against the global hubs: Dubai (~6,411 km), São Paulo (~7,428 km), Singapore (~8,662 km) are the close ones, with Los Angeles (~16,665 km) sitting on the opposite side of the planet — a good gut check when judging logistics windows.
