IT IS thought that MAERSK has secured the 411,470 ft2 facility to fulfil a contract with ecommerce giant Amazon.
The property has 383,396 ft2 of warehouse space with 15m eaves as well as 34 dock and four level access doors served by two yards of 55m and 35m with parking for 75 HGVs. It has 360 degree circulation and 5,329 ft2 of two storey hub offices. It also benefits from 14,645 ft2 of three storey offices. The facility was built by Hillwood and Trebor Developments in 2020 and is located at Junction 4 of the M18 motorway.
The building was re-leased so quickly that it has been said that brochures did not even make it to print.
Geodis originally took the building on a lease at an annual rent of circa £2.45 million.
