Tritax Symmetry is to speculatively develop a 500,000 sq ft cross-dock logistics facility at Symmetry Park, Kettering.
This facility, to be known as Kettering 500, is the second to be brought forward on site following the completion of a 312,875 sq ft building in February this year.
Main contractor Buckingham Group has been appointed to deliver the building, which will be net zero carbon in construction and will target a minimum BREEAM Excellent and EPC A rating.
Work is scheduled to start on site later this month, with completion expected in April 2024.
Jonathan Wallis, development director at Tritax Symmetry, said: “Our decision to speculatively develop Kettering 500 is a direct response to extensive research into the occupational market which highlighted a supply versus demand imbalance in the 500,000 sq ft size bracket.”
Symmetry Park Kettering is located on a 136-acre site alongside junction 9 on the A41 and has outline planning consent for 2.3m sq ft of logistics floor space.
Cushman and Wakefield and BNP Paribas Real Estate are joint letting agents for the scheme.
