Demand for industrial and logistics space is high across the North West and is being boosted in Merseyside by the Liverpool City Region Freeport which went live in January 2023.
Joint agents on the scheme are LM6 and Keppie Massie. Anthony O’Keefe, director at LM6, said: “This scheme is built to the highest specification and given the quality of the build and location we expect keen occupational demand.
“The build is already well progressed with steels up and roofing works almost complete and the units offer an attractive proposition to industrial/trade counter occupiers and a rare opportunity to buy.”
