Pomona is a northerly suburb of Kempton Park, in Gauteng province, South Africa.

In the late 20th century Pomona functioned mainly as agricultural small holdings, producing fresh vegetables and fruit.[citation needed]

Since 2015, the area is reportedly rapidly becoming an industrial area with the presence of large warehouses of various international forwarding companies, because of its proximity of 5 km to OR Tambo International Airport on the R21 freeway and the suburb's distance from other residential suburbs of Kempton Park.[2][3]
