Alfreton distribution centre located on major North – South distribution corridor
St. Modwen, one of the UK’s leading logistics developers and managers, has continued its Midlands logistics expansion with the acquisition of a 56,760 sq ft cold storage distribution facility in Alfreton, Derbyshire.
The modern, two-chamber cold storage distribution facility is located on the Clover Nook Industrial Estate in Alfreton, adjacent to the A38 and Junction 28 of the M1 motorway and on the major North-South distribution corridor.
The site spans 5.31 acres with low site coverage of 25% and currently provides 161 car parking spaces and a further 30 dedicated HGV bays with the capacity to accommodate the installation of EV charging points.
Alfreton, by virtue of its central location equidistant from Nottingham and Derby, has become one of the UK’s major submarkets for distribution and logistics companies. There is strong local demand for high-quality mid box distribution centres with strong transport connectivity, seeing high levels of take-up among occupiers seeking urban depots to serve surrounding towns and cities. Supply of suitable mid box schemes within the Midlands is limited, with low levels of available stock and significant competition between occupiers for best-in-class units.
This latest acquisition is part of St. Modwen’s ongoing Midlands logistics expansion, as the company continues to meet the increasing demand for high-quality distribution centres in the region.
