XPO’s new 250,000 sq ft warehouse at Trafford Park has been completed and handed over by Evander Properties and Legal & General Property’s Industrial Property Investment Fund.
The warehouse, which took nine months to build has 237,000 sq ft of warehouse space, together with 13,000 sq ft of office space.
XPO will use the facility for distribution of the Missguided fashion brand.
Evander managing director Jeremy Greenland, said: “The on time completion and handover of this impressive new development is great news for Trafford Park. It’s a good example of successful regeneration of edge of urban tertiary stock, and continued occupational demand driven by internet retailers.”
Trafford Park, when originally developed in the 1930’s was the world’s first purpose-build industrial estate and is Manchester’s Premier Logistics Location. Ideally located just a couple of miles of from junctions 9, 7 of the M60 and junction 2 from the M602, the development is home to a number of leading occupiers including DHL, Adidas, Screwfix, TNT, SiG, Kellogg’s and Associated British foods.
