Airport Property Partnership (APP), a joint venture between SEGRO and Aviva Investors, is pleased to announce that it has signed up transportation and logistics firm, Kuehne + Nagel, to its North Feltham Trading Estate at Heathrow. Kuehne + Nagel has signed a 10 year lease on an 86,500 sq ft unit and will be using the facility to distribute food and drink products.
North Feltham Trading Estate forms part of APP’s strategically well located portfolio, which focuses on offering high-quality warehousing in close proximity to key airports, predominantly at Heathrow. The well-established estate is the largest non-airside asset in the APP portfolio at Heathrow.
Alan Holland, Director of APP and SEGRO’s Business Unit Director for Greater London, said: “We are pleased to have signed this new deal with our existing customer, Kuehne + Nagel, and are delighted to welcome them to the North Feltham Trading Estate. Located just three miles from Heathrow’s Cargo Terminal and with excellent access to the main road networks, North Feltham’s strategic location is a great fit for major logistics providers such as Kuehne + Nagel.”
Bill Thatcher, Operations Manager, Kuehne + Nagel, said: “As one of the leading global air cargo logistics providers, it was imperative that we secure a facility with good access to Heathrow’s Cargo Terminal. APP’s unit at North Feltham was the perfect solution and we’re excited to begin operating from the new facility.”
North Feltham Trading Estate is located just three miles from Heathrow’s Cargo Terminal. The estate has good access to M4, M25 and M3. Existing customers include OCS, Fedex, Toll Global Forwarding and UPS.
