SEGRO has received planning consent for the development of two highly sustainable urban logistics schemes in Hackney Wick and Deptford.
SEGRO Park Hackney Wick will deliver two new urban warehouse units offering 53,000 sq ft on a brownfield site in the heart of Wick Lane and SEGRO Park Deptford will provide 24,000 sq ft of highly sustainable warehouse space across two modern, flexible units.
Bonnie Minshull, head of London at SEGRO, said: “Prime urban warehousing in London presents a resilient and robust investment opportunity, which is why we are excited to bring forward our proposals at SEGRO Park Hackney Wick and SEGRO Park Deptford. Both schemes are integral to our urban warehousing strategy in inner London and are intended to appeal to a diverse range of customers serving the capital.
“This will enable us to leverage our portfolio of urban assets in key strategic locations that have access to a strong potential employee pool, helping to reduce distribution costs and uniquely position ourselves to meet evolving market demand.
“We have paid particular attention to the design of this new breed of asset to ensure they complement the local surroundings of an inner city location from an aesthetical perspective, while delivering on the sustainability, efficiency and practicality requirements of our customers.”
