JJB Sports has let 100,000 sq ft to supply chain logistics operator Torque Logistics at Martland Park, Wigan.
The sports retailer is leasing the distribution space as it has a surplus to its own requirements. The building has a three-tier mezzanine floor that brings the total floor space to 250,900 sq ft.
Existing occupiers at Martland Park include Heinz, Wincanton and White Arrow Logistics.
Paul Cook, associate director at CBRE, said: “Martland Park provides an ideal opportunity for Torque Logistics to expand its business into a high bay modern distribution facility with excellent motorway communications, and proves the demand for good quality warehousing remains robust in the North West.”
Alan Stell, property estates manager for JJB Sports, said: “Not only does it save the company a significant amount of money, it provides long-term rental income and the 10-year lease enhances the asset value of the JJB site.”
