Logistics North is the North West’s largest live logistics and manufacturing development:
- 4 million sq ft of employment space across 250 acres, providing freehold and leasehold opportunities
- 1.5 million sq ft completed
- M60 and M62 within four miles, providing access to over 21 million consumers within a two hour drive
- Direct access to junction 4 of the M61
- Aldi, MBDA, Joy Global, Costa Coffee, Green King & Lidl already confirmed as occupiers
- 550 acre country park also under construction, providing unique surroundings for employees on-site
- Infrastructure works completed opening up the entire site.
Logistics North offers the best speculative and design and build opportunities available for manufacturing and distribution businesses.
Since receiving outline planning consent in December 2013, 1.5 million sq ft of employment development has been completed – emphasising the site’s prime position in the North West commercial market and the ability to deliver what occupiers need quickly.
This includes two prime Grade ‘A’ logistics buildings, funded by M&G Real Estate and being delivered by Harworth Group, that tackles head-on the limited
existing supply of this type of unit in the region.
The scheme also benefits from extremely strong support from Bolton Metropolitan Borough Council, the Greater Manchester Combined Authority, and MIDAS – Greater Manchester’s Inward Investment Agency.
THE ABILITY TO DELIVER
Since the site received planning consent in December 2013, almost 40% of consented space has already been built or is under construction. This speed of delivery has been underpinned by the efficient delivery of new on-site infrastructure. Construction of Logistics North’s principal estate road, which unlocked the entirety of the site was completed in 2015. 1.75 million sq ft of commercial space remains across the site.
ANCHORED BY ALDI
Aldi’s new regional distribution centre officially opened in April 2016, with 550 staff already on-site working from the new base. This includes a whole floor dedicated to the ‘Academy’, which is Aldi’s training department to develop staff.
