The industrial and logistics sector is essential to our economic infrastructure, but bringing forward the right development in the right location is increasingly complex.
We help clients unlock the potential of greenfield, green/grey belt and brownfield land by developing strategies that respond to identified needs, site context, occupier requirements and commercial objectives. Combining Planning, EIA, Design, Sustainability, Heritage, Townscape and Landscape, Economics and Strategic Communications expertise, we reduce risk, develop robust strategies, add value and create a clearer route to delivery.
Industrial investment is increasingly mobile, while changing occupier needs, market conditions and sustainability expectations require flexible, forward-looking solutions.
The UK’s re-industrialisation agenda is also creating new opportunities across advanced manufacturing, digital infrastructure and other growth industries, but investment will flow to the locations that can offer the greatest clarity and confidence around delivery.
We help landowners, developers, investors and occupiers navigate complex planning, consenting and investment requirements and determine the right development response for individual sites. From initial location and investment decisions through to consent and delivery, our advice positions land and assets for investment while retaining the flexibility to respond to future economic and market conditions.
Our experience spans strategic employment sites, logistics parks, advanced manufacturing, freeports, digital infrastructure, multi-level industrial development and co-location, as well as asset management and value gain from existing employment locations.
