Developer sought for Blackpool Enterprise Zone land

Blackpool Council is seeking a development partner for around 300,000 sq ft of land at Blackpool Airport Enterprise Zone.

The development plot, which could cater for units ranging from 15,000 sq ft to 75,000 sq ft, will be available from summer 2025 and will be targeted for industrial and warehouse use, specifically aimed at advanced manufacturing, energy, food and drink production and digital technology sectors.

Planning permission has already been secured.

Mark Smith, cabinet member for levelling up (place) at Blackpool Council, said: “For developers, we have made great progress on the infrastructure, with power, internet and water being delivered to the site, and a new landscaped access road available next year.

“With a large element of the risk taken out of the site, this allows a developer to work with us to realise our ambitions of creating more high-quality jobs in the local area over the next few years.”

Interested developers have until 1 July to submit their proposals.
