VGP hands over key to Loendersloot Global Logistics for its new distribution center at VGP Park Roosendaal
• VGP Netherlands hands over the new warehouse with more than 9,000 m2 of space to Loendersloot Global Logistics
• VGP Park Roosendaal fully let
‘s-Hertogenbosch, Netherlands, 5 April 2023 - VGP, a pan-European owner, manager and developer of high-quality logistics and semi-industrial real estate, handed over the keys to Loendersloot Global Logistics at VGP Park Roosendaal.
The park is located at business park Borchwerf, close to the important A17 and A58/N268 motorways providing excellent connections to both the north with the south of the country and with Belgium. In addition, the business park is located next to Roosendaal Central Station, which - with one of the main railway connections between the Netherlands and Belgium - makes this area a very important economic hub.
Loendersloot, founded in 1982 and based in Roosendaal, rents the second building at the VGP park with a floor area of approx. 9,000 m² of warehouse space and an extra 230 m2 for adjacent
offices and technical, social and sanitary areas. The company is specialized in logistics, customs and e-commerce services. The first building in the park with a total lettable area of around 41,000 m2 was previously occupied by e-fullfillment specialist Active Ants and logistics company Raben. With Loendersloot, the park is fully let.
In line with VGP's ESG strategy, the building will be BREEAM-certified and planned according to the Group's sustainability standards: it will accommodate a rooftop photovoltaic system with a capacity of 985 kWp, installation of which will start in April. VGP Park Roosendaal also provides an underground water retention basin which can collect 4,108 m3 water to regulate pressure on local drainage and which could be used in the future for, among other things, watering vegetation.
Danny De Hoon, COO of Loendersloot Global Logistics, says: "We are looking forward to moving into the building to provide our existing and new customers with the right service as they have come to expect from us. With this expansion, we can take a nice step towards achieving our growth ambition."
Geerd van Helden, Commercial Director for VGP Benelux said: "We are delighted to hand over our latest development at VGP Park Roosendaal to Loendersloot. We therefore look back with pleasure on the process from contract signing to realisation and the contribution we can make to Loendersloot's growth ambitions."
After launching the Benelux in 2018 with the first land acquisition for the Netherlands, VGP has already developed and delivered over 250,000 m2 GLA of warehouses and offices at their VGP Park Roosendaal and VGP Park Nijmegen (Oosterhout Gld.). Overall, the Group operates in seventeen European countries. The company based in Antwerp, Belgium, now operates 108
parks.
