THE LAST mile logistics Delivery Unit or “DU” at Panattoni Park Burgess Hill, offers strong access to strategic A-road and motorway network across the South East. The scheme on a 22-acre site, fronts the A2300 dual carriageway and provides fast access to the A23/M23, Gatwick Airport, Brighton and the wider south coast markets.
The company is believed to have taken Unit 16 totalling 12,152 ft2 which boasts 8m eaves.
DU’s typically range in size from 5,000 – 8,000 ft2 and require 24/7 access for in bound deliveries. They need around 15 spaces for car parking and delivery vans and ground level space to streamline last mile operations.
This transaction marks EVRi’s fourth facility within a Panattoni scheme, taking the total space occupied across Panattoni parks to approximately 245,000 ft2.
Panattoni Park Burgess Hill is a well established last mile logistics location, strategically positioned to serve population centres across Sussex, Surrey, and the wider South East. The park benefits from direct access to key A-road routes and onward motorway connections, making it well suited to high frequency, time sensitive distribution operations.
The latest letting follows Austin Racing’s occupation at the park last year and further underlines the breadth of demand from occupiers seeking modern, efficient logistics space in supply constrained South East markets. Panattoni Park Burgess Hill is already home to a diverse range of occupiers, including Roche, DPD, EMED Group, and Austin Racing, with discussions ongoing with additional occupiers for remaining units.
The deal reflects Panattoni’s continued focus on delivering flexible, future-ready logistics space that can support occupiers’ evolving operational requirements, particularly in the growing last mile and parcel delivery sector.
Panattoni South east and London development manager Will Fennell said: “We are pleased to be supporting EVRi’s continued growth with their fourth facility within a Panattoni Park. Burgess Hill is a highly strategic last mile location, offering strong connectivity across the South East, and it continues to attract occupiers who value operational efficiency and access to labour and customers.
DTRE, Cogent, SHW and Vail Williams are leasing agents on the development.
