Adjoining the Palmerston North Airport, the Manawatu Industrial Park (MIP) offers design build opportunities for lease in an area experiencing exponential growth. The location sits adjacent to the proposed KiwiRail freight hub that began designation in October, 2020. This project alone is anticipated to attract up to $4 billion of logistics investment to the area - an exciting expansion of what is already the second largest logistics hub in New Zealand.
Geographically, this location provides a transport network with an ability to service the wider New Zealand via road, rail and air.
Access to a workforce and ability to operate 24/7, the MIP provides opportunities for design build options for lease at any level. The developer, Higgins Family Holdings Limited, have a proven history of facilitating successful projects throughout the Manawatu and wider New Zealand. This is evidenced by the recent Countdown Distribution Centre which encompassed 40,000 square metres of total building. Proposed developments will benefit from surrounding businesses, including Ezibuy, Foodstuffs, Big Chill, and Downer.
