Showground Distribution Park, Huntworth, M5 Junction 24, Somerset

ROLES

Joint Commercial Estate Agent.

LOCATION

Showground Distribution Park is one of the leading distribution locations on the M5. Strategically located adjacent to Junction 24, the Park is equidistant between Bristol and Exeter and therefore provides excellent access to South Wales, the Midlands, North, London and the rest of the South West Peninsula. Bridgwater’s locational and logistical attributes have already been recognised by several major occupiers who have their regional distribution depots located adjacent to the subject site. These are Argos, Somerfield, Langdons, Exel Logistics and Gerber Foods. Located within a mile of the Town Centre, there is an immediate labour supply.

DESCRIPTION

This level site extends to approx. 6.5 acres and benefits from excellent prominence to the M5. We will provide design and build opportunities for B1, B2 and B8 accommodation, making it one of the very rare opportunities for a regional distribution depot along the M5 corridor south of Bristol.
