FROM THE GROUND UP<br />
Interest in Taupo industrial<br />
property on the rise<br />
Over recent months sales of Taupo<br />
industrial properties have seen a marked<br />
increase as businesses look to expand and<br />
re-locate to southern <strong>Waikato</strong>.<br />
The Taupo region has<br />
long been regarded as<br />
the strategic hub for<br />
the state highway network;<br />
bringing with it a range of<br />
business and growth opportunities.<br />
As <strong>Waikato</strong> and Bay of<br />
Plenty flourish and Auckland<br />
continues to grow businesses<br />
As the Taupo region’s<br />
only large lot<br />
industrial subdivision,<br />
Centennial Estate<br />
provides opportunities<br />
for heavy industrial<br />
activities relating<br />
to transport and<br />
distribution,<br />
contracting,<br />
construction, forestry,<br />
farming, energy<br />
generation and more.<br />
are increasingly looking to<br />
the Taupo region for reasonably<br />
priced industrial land,<br />
main transport linkages and<br />
lifestyle.<br />
Centennial Estate Industrial<br />
Park offers a key location<br />
for businesses servicing central<br />
North Island industries as<br />
well as those feeding into the<br />
rest of the North Island and<br />
further south. Located on the<br />
north eastern side of Taupo,<br />
Centennial Estate is situated<br />
close to on-ramps feeding the<br />
Taupo Expressway.<br />
As the Taupo region’s only<br />
large lot industrial subdivision,<br />
Centennial Estate provides<br />
opportunities for heavy<br />
industrial activities relating<br />
to transport and distribution,<br />
contracting, construction, forestry,<br />
farming, energy generation<br />
and more.<br />
The development is ideally<br />
positioned for large scale storage<br />
or transport related activities<br />
to capitalise on the site's<br />
close proximity to the Taupo<br />
Expressway. Other land uses<br />
could include manufacturing<br />
and processing plants, breweries<br />
and biofuel production<br />
facilities.<br />
To the west lies heavy industrial<br />
activity including<br />
wood processing and moulding<br />
plants and Contact Energy's<br />
Tauhara Geothermal<br />
Power Station. To the north<br />
lies a range of forestry, manufacturing,<br />
engineering and<br />
supply businesses.<br />
The Industrial Park has<br />
been well thought out with the<br />
main access from Centennial<br />
Drive, near the Expressway’s<br />
on-ramps. The Off-Road<br />
Highway adjoins the northern<br />
boundary with an entry<br />
for logging trucks and within<br />
the subdivision a private ring<br />
road provides individual lot<br />
access. Each industrial lot has<br />
been terraced and landscaped<br />
with boundary planting to ensure<br />
a high quality development.<br />
The Industrial Park already<br />
has manufacturing, civil construction,<br />
logging and courier<br />
businesses either operating or<br />
about to build. Of the original<br />
15 lots, only nine lots are left.<br />
Bare land and lease to buy<br />
options are available to meet<br />
client requirements. Centennial<br />
Estate has also partnered<br />
with successful local<br />
construction companies that<br />
specialise in commercial, industrial,<br />
design and build, and<br />
project management services<br />
to offer a turn key package.<br />
