Associated British Ports is marketing more than 1m sq ft of development space at the Port of Grimsby – the latest in more than 1,000 acres of land the company wants to free up.
The 89-acre site can support 1.6m sq ft of development and units of between 7,500 sq ft and 210,000 sq ft.
ABP is targeting manufacturing, logistics and low-carbon energy producers. The port is already one of the country’s leading automotive ports and a hub for the offshore wind industry.
CBRE and PPH Commercial are marketing the land.
Last year, ABP said it would bring forward strategic sites at 14 ports that could be used as manufacturing or logistics sites, or for renewable energy production.
Speaking to EG in March, chief executive Henrik Pedersen said: “We looked at this massive landbank – that’s literally land that has not been used for 50 or 60 years – and said, ‘This smells like untapped opportunities’.”
