The planning permission includes the demolition of the nine-acre former Tenmat factory site to provide a new fit-for-purpose industrial unit which includes a service yard, car parking, and 19,000 sq ft of office and meeting space.
The unit will allow for the simultaneous loading or unloading of up to 25 HGVs and the car park will include electric vehicle charging points and secure cycle storage facilities.
G-Park Manchester Trafford Park will achieve a 45% reduction in carbon emissions through its measures to reduce energy demand for the site and incorporate renewable technologies.
Green infrastructure will be a key feature of the site, with new planting around every boundary which will deliver an increase of over 18% in biodiversity and 100% in hedgerow units, providing a significant ecological benefit.
Trafford Park is the premier industrial estate in the North West, covering approximately 1,940 acres and employing over 35,000 people, and is home to over 1,300 businesses including Amazon, Adidas, Unilever and DHL. The park has excellent connectivity by road, rail and air, strategically located within five miles of Manchester city centre and benefitting from good access to the national motorways network, Metrolink tram and light railway system, and Manchester Airport.
