Mountpark has started construction on a 1.46 million sq ft logistics park, Mountpark Hinckley, in the heart of the UK’s Golden Triangle.
It follows Mountpark securing approval of a complex hybrid planning application by Rugby Borough Council, Hinckley & Bosworth Borough Council and Nuneaton & Bedworth Borough Council. Detailed consent has been granted for the development of a 491,926 sq ft unit, which has been pre-let to a major supermarket retailer.
Mountpark has appointed Winvic Construction to deliver the infrastructure and enabling works, as well as the vertical build of Unit 1, which is scheduled for practical completion in spring 2026.
Mountpark has also submitted Reserved Matters Applications for the two remaining plots, which will offer 514,100 sq ft and 258,000 sq ft of logistics space.
“This marks an exciting step forward with construction now underway on site at Mountpark Hinckley, following over five years of dedicated work by our planning team to bring the development to fruition,” said Tom Kilmister, senior development director at Mountpark.
“This project reflects our commitment to unlocking new sites, our continued investment in the East Midlands’ logistics infrastructure and our ability to deliver high-quality space that supports market demand for our customers.
“The pre-letting of Unit 1 is a testament to our customer-focused approach, working closely with occupiers to deliver tailored solutions that align with their operational needs and long-term growth ambitions.”
