Jamie Young, Development Surveyor at Verdion, said: “There has been a noticeable shift in occupier demand in the last quarter, with renewed appetite for expansion and a focus on high quality space. These deals underline the continued attractiveness of iPort – and its power capacity, multimodal capability and strong demographics – to a wide range of businesses.”
iPort is the UK’s most advanced multimodal facility, spanning 800 acres with 52 MVA power close to junction 3 of the M18 in Doncaster with 91% of the UK population within a four-hour drive of the park. Occupiers at iPort include Amazon, CEVA, Fellowes, Lidl, Dusk, Maritime Transport and Euro Pool Systems.
Its on-site rail freight terminal, iPort Rail, is now operated by MEDLOG, offering services to to/from Southampton, Felixstowe and Teesport and used by iPort occupiers and other businesses across the region looking to cut carbon within their supply chains.
GV&Co, CBRE and Colliers are the retained leasing agents for iPort.
