The Coventry Observer has reported that planning permission has been granted for an extension to the major Prologis Park in Keresley.
Prologis UK, a prominent player in logistics property development, has received planning consent to extend Prologis Park Coventry, adding 159,000sq ft of prime logistics space to the existing park.
The extension – set to accommodate either a single unit or a two-unit scheme based on customer demand – marks a significant expansion in one of the UK’s most sought-after industrial regions.
The site is well located in relation to Junction 3 on the M6 and within close proximity to five different motorways. Prologis Park is said to hold a prestigious status among businesses operating in the automotive and wider logistics sectors.
The development will lead to Prologis UK having a huge 3.4 million sq. ft. of property in Warwickshire (at Keresley and Ryton).
Maria Bailey, head of planning at Nuneaton and Bedworth Borough Council, said: “The granting of this planning application means that there are more chances than ever for the local community to pursue roles within a stable and progressive industry.
“Supporting the growth of businesses, and attracting more commercial activity to the area, will secure the delivery of a valuable employment site and bring inward investment and jobs to the borough.”
Designed with employee wellbeing in mind, the extension features amenities such as landscaped communal areas and convenient access routes, fostering a conducive work environment.
