Crossbay has let a 115,000 sq ft unit at Shawcross Business Park to engineering and services business NG Bailey.
Located just off Junction 40 of the M1 in south Leeds, the Shawcross 115 unit will support NG Bailey’s production capacity for Tata Group’s £4bn gigafactory project.
Crossbay acquired the last-mile warehouse when it was vacant, before completing a full refurbishment as part of its sustainability-led asset and capex management programme.
The EPC A-rated warehouse has been divided into two units and the second unit, Shawcross 55, is currently available to let.
Devan du Plooy, head of UK at Crossbay, said: “This agreement represents the strength of demand for high quality last-mile assets that are strategically located, sustainable and designed to meet the requirements of a very wide range of occupiers. Furthermore, it demonstrates the Crossbay team’s market-leading ability to source off market opportunities and undertake significant asset repositioning, in order to maximise value for our investors.”
Crossbay was jointly advised by Knight Frank and Carter Towler.
