Barberry has secured planning consent to build a £20m industrial and logistics unit at Tournament Fields Business Park in Warwick.
The developer acquired the last remaining plot at the business park earlier this year from Sackville Developments (Warwick) and has secured reserved matters planning permission from Warwick District Council for a 92,246 sq ft Grade A distribution and logistics unit.
Barberry is offering the unit on a freehold or leasehold basis and intends to appoint a main contractor immediately with the intention of making a start on site in Q1 next year.
Jonathan Robinson, development director at Barberry, said: “We are thrilled to be in the position to progress our exciting business plan having secured planning consent for our prime mid-box industrial and logistics building at Tournament Fields. In doing so, we continue to demonstrate not only our commitment to the mid-box industrial logistics market but also our capability in the UK market.
“This is one of our recently acquired sites and we continue to seek new opportunities in line with our plans to keep growing our business in this sector. We have already had several named occupiers engage with us on this site and we are very much looking forward to building out the proposed scheme and bringing dozens of new jobs to the region.
“The development of a best-in-class unit will help to address the ongoing shortage of new, high quality industrial accommodation in the West Midlands. New buildings such as this help to create the quality accommodation that local, regional and national businesses need in order to expand their operations within the Midlands.”
Wareing & Company and Savills have been retained as leasing agents by Barberry.
