Work completes on major new logistics building

Construction work has been completed on a new logistics building at Infinity Park Derby, which could create up to 1,000 jobs.

Logicor, a leading owner, manager and developer of European logistics real estate, has completed the project, known as Derby 507, which offers more than 500,000 sq ft of premium warehouse space.

It features an 18-metre height ceiling, a 55-metre depth gated yard, and a 2.73 MVA power supply.

Additional Grade A offices are designed to support modern business operations, ensuring tenants have an integrated and efficient working environment.

Derby 507 is also highly sustainable, having achieved a BREEAM Excellent rating and exceeded expectations with an EPC A+ rating.

Charlie Howard, UK managing director at Logicor, said: “We are focused on creating high-quality logistics spaces that support local economies and enhance the logistics infrastructure across the UK.

“The development will provide significant employment opportunities while facilitating growth for businesses in the region.”

Located near to Rolls-Royce’s civil aerospace site at Sinfin, Infinity Park Derby is a 100-acre development with Investment Zone status.

Christopher Tebbs, inward investment executive at Marketing Derby, said: “Logicor’s investment into the ‘Derby 507’ scheme shows great confidence in the city from a major global investment player.

“This new 508,000 sq ft speculative build has the potential to support over 1,000 jobs for the local area while attracting a world-class end-user.

“This commitment furthermore speaks volumes about the wider Infinity Park Derby scheme, which is set to become one of the region’s new Investment Zones under the East Midlands Combined County Authority.”
