PRUPIM has appointed us as its strategic marketing and lettings agent on STRATA, a 137,478 sq ft distribution/warehouse facility close to Doncaster.

The distribution/warehouse facility is situated immediately off J6 of the M18. It provides 134,085 sq ft of warehouse and offices on the ground floor, and 3,393 sq ft of offices on the first floor.

State of the art environmental specification

The development incorporates the latest in environmental technologies, including movement and daylight controlled lights, and water leak detection equipment, set within extensive native landscaping.

7% increase in demand for industrial space across Yorkshire

Rob Whatmuff, Head of our Industrial and Logistics team in Yorkshire, said: “Business sentiment improvements have lead to an increase in demand for industrial space across Yorkshire. Total take-up reached 8.m sq ft last year - an increase of 7.0% over the previous year’s total.

"Not only does STRATA benefit from a high-quality specification, it is also strategically located on the M18 corridor; the busiest motorway in the UK in terms of proportion of HGV traffic to passenger vehicles.

Operational cost savings

“In addition, the building’s sustainability and environmental credentials can generate operational cost savings, which will prove attractive to potential occupiers.  We are confident in receiving a good deal of interest in the space."

The 13-acre Capitol Park scheme was constructed by Stoford Developments last year. Other local occupiers include Croda, BMW and Omega plc.
