The Requirement Dalepak, a Northampton-based logistics company has been growing steadily since its formation in the early 1990s. The company needed a new distribution facility that was close to its existing operations. In addition to providing further warehouse accommodation, Dalepak was seeking a building that would serve as its new headquarters. The Solution Prologis was able to offer DC139, a new 139,000 square feet distribution centre at Prologis Park Pineham DC 139 includes 10,861 square feet of offices on two floors. Prologis carried out a generic fit-out of the building as part of the deal. The building has gained BREEAM 2007 ‘Excellent’ accreditation and an EPC (CO 2 Index 27) rating, which means that it is cost-effective to operate. www.prologisparkpineham.co.uk “ The Result Following the fit-out programme, Dalepak moved into the building and now occupies around 340,000 square feet in the Northampton area. As Gary White, joint managing director of Dalepak said: The decision to move into this new Prologis building was a tremendous step forward for our business and shows how far Dalepak has come since we started as a small packaging company 20 years ago. We already have a skilled workforce and highly sophisticated technology. Now we have the building to match. ” CASE STUDY
The Requirement In 2006, Dunelm Mill realised that it needed a new distribution facility that would allow it to consolidate its existing operations at Burton on Trent and at Syston in Leicestershire. Anticipating future growth, Dunelm had also been looking for a flexible solution that would accommodate further expansion. Four years later, Dunelm’s continuing success meant that it required this additional space to service its rapidly developing business. The Solution Responding to Dunelm’s initial requirement, Prologis was able to offer a 250,000 sq ft speculative building at Prologis Park Stoke, which is close to Junction 15 of the M6. The 10 year lease deal included additional land that could accommodate a 100,000 sq ft extension. In 2010, when Dunelm decided to expand, it needed more space than the 100,000 sq ft that it had anticipated. Prologis was able to offer the neighbouring site that together with the original expansion land, would accommodate a second, linked, building of 250,000 sq ft. Prologis proposed a build-to-suit solution that would both meet Dunelm’s timetable and construction work started in April 2010 with a completion date five months later in early September. www.prologisstoke.co.uk A further benefit for Dunelm was that Prologis undertook to build the new, interconnecting warehouse without any disruption to operations in the original building. Dunelm Mill has been able not only to retain its existing workforce, it has also been able to bring new jobs to the local economy. The Result Dunelm Mill has been able to expand its distribution facilities from 250,000 sq ft to 500,000 sq ft with minimal disruption to its business. “ Because Prologis Park Stoke is on the M6 and within 90 minutes drive of Birmingham, Manchester and Liverpool, it is a prime location for us. Prologis has always provided us with a very high standard of quality and service and we look forward to working closely with them as we continue to expand our operations. ” Steve Barton, Property Director at Dunelm Mill CASE STUDY
