Planning consent for unit at Prologis Park Midpoint

The plans include the demolition of an obsolete unit and the construction of a new best in class 163,000 sq ft building that will be rated BREEAM Excellent.

Originally built for the supermarket giant Asda in 2016, the existing facility was too bespoke for wider market requirements. Repurposing the site to meet current market demands will provide additional space in a prime location. The development of DC6 will expand the park to over 1.6m sq ft, provide additional amenity space for the park, and enhance landscaping, as part of Prologis’ ParkLife initiatives.

James Hemstock, director in the capital deployment and leasing team at Prologis UK, said: “We’re expecting to complete the building early 2023 and have already had a significant amount of interest from potential customers. We want this location to continue to develop and realise its full potential, for the benefit of businesses and households across the West Midlands.”
