Logicenters is expanding in Brabrand by acquiring a new logistics center spanning over a total area of 13,649 m². The international company DHL, which currently occupy 6,210 m² of the facility, already have their operations running.

I’m very pleased that we managed to close this deal, and we look forward to working with KT Erhvervsbyg and developing even more square meters with an environmental focus”, says Thomas Petersen, Commercial Manager at Logicenters.

The new logistics center is strategically located next to highway E45, providing optimal transportation opportunities for both domestic and international distribution. Aarhus, along with the rest of Denmark, is easily accessible as well.

“We are happy to be working with Logicenters. This collaboration allows us to build a modern logistics facility of significant size, with all the needs for tomorrow’s logistics”, says Per Henriksen, director of PCM Invest and founder and CEO of KT Erhvervsbyg.

The construction of the new facility will focus on CO₂-reducing technologies and materials, ensuring that the project meets the growing demand for sustainable solutions. Development of the warehouse will begin as soon as possible and is expected to be completed in 2026. Logicenters is currently looking for new tenants to move-in.

Logicenters is set to expand its property in Greve. The building, leased by Godshotel & Transport, will be extended with 9700 m²and is expected to be completed in the final quarter of 2024.

The property in Greve is currently leased by the Danish logistic operator Godshotel, which has requested an expansion of the building.

The facility, which covers an area of over 30 000 m², will be expanded by an additional, 9700 m² to meet the tenant’s needs and growth.

“We are extremely grateful for the excellent collaboration with Logicenters in recent years and look forward with great pleasure to moving into the expansion when it’s completed. We are very satisfied with the location in Greve, and this gives us the opportunity to further expand our operations”, says Martin Dibbern, CEO at Godshotel & Transport.

The property has been constructed in two stages since 1997, and the total area before the upcoming redevelopment is 30 142 m². Logicenters is well established in Zealand and has multiple properties in Greve, Køge, Ishøj and Vallensbæk.

“We are pleased to expand even further in Greve. The logistics area has an attractive location in Zealand with perfect proximity to E20.

Logicenters to install solar cells across 800,000 m2

February 10, 2023 7:35 am Comments Off

Logicenters is continuing to concentrate on a sustainable future. To lead the move towards a carbon-neutral sector, the company has decided to more than double its ownership of solar cell installations in the coming years.

With a sustainability goal to be completely carbon neutral by 2028, Logicenters has decided to pioneer the use of renewable energy at its facilities.
The decision has been made to cover roofs with solar panels on all new builds and to install them on existing roofs where possible.

In total, Logicenters aims to install around 800,000 m2 of solar cells over the next three years. This area is equivalent to a total of 133 football pitches. In total, this investment would generate potential annual production of 85,000 MWh, sufficient household electricity for more than the whole of Östersund (24,290 households).

“The logistics property sector has the necessary conditions and therefore a responsibility to take a leading role in the expansion of solar energy on our large roof areas. We are also building for tomorrow, when solar power will be used to charge the electric distribution vehicles of the future. It is here that we at Logicenters feel we can make a big difference,” says Jon Malmsten, solar energy expert at Logicenters.

Over the last year, this ambitious solar cell strategy has already seen construction of the largest roof-mounted solar plant in the Nordic region, covering 80,000 m2. The plant was built for Dagab in Bålsta and is set to become operational in March.

“For me, it goes without saying that we should continue our commitment to solar energy for a carbon-neutral tomorrow. The property sector continues to account for 40% of global emissions and there is an urgent need to find better ways both to develop and to operate properties. Everyone must assume responsibility and it is our ambition to be at the forefront of the Nordic market,” says Matthias Kettelhoit, CEO of Logicenters.

The logistics property company is continuing to develop its presence in the Copenhagen region. It has been announced that Bedrocan, a supplier of medical cannabis, will lease 13,000 m² in Køge.

Two years ago, Logicenters acquired 160,000 m² of land at the Danish logistics park, Skandinavisk Transport Center, in Køge, south of Copenhagen. The logistics property company is planning to develop facilities totalling 68,000 m² in the park, which is now beginning to be filled with future tenants.

A long-term lease agreement has been signed between Logicenters and the Dutch company Bedrocan to lease 13,000 m² in Egedesvej C, with occupancy scheduled to take place on 1 May 2023.

“We are delighted to end the year by entering into a long-term lease with Bedrocan. Our state-of-the-art and sustainable logistics facility will truly accommodate Bedrocan’s need to streamline its logistics operations on the Danish market. We look forward to welcoming our new tenant in the spring,” says Thomas Petersen, Commercial Manager at Logicenters.

Bedrocan is the world’s most experienced producer of medical cannabis. Its high-quality cannabis is used worldwide by patients, drug developers and researchers. It operates two indoor growing facilities in the Netherlands and now one in Denmark (Køge). Bedrocan does not produce cannabis for recreational use.

“With two decades of experience in manufacturing pharmaceutical grade medical cannabis, we look forward to further developing our business in the Nordic region. Logicenters’ logistics facility gave us the perfect opportunity to expand our business and we are really looking forward to our cooperation in the coming years,” says Jaap Erkelens, CEO of Bedrocan.

Skandinavisk Transport Center’s proximity to the E20, E55 and E47 European motorways offers geographical benefits. Køge is also very close to Copenhagen and the port of Køge. Other major companies with a presence in the area include Lidl, Netto, Bring and Movianto.

The tenant at the facility will be logistics company Bring with its Shelfless investment. An initial contract has been signed for 14,000 m² but with the ambition to double this area in the future.

The facility will be adapted in line with Bring’s investment in automated e-commerce logistics, enabling it to offer speedy and environmentally sound deliveries to its customers.

We at Logicenters are also proud to be building the facility in line with our clear and forward-looking environmental profile,” says Thomas Petersen, Commercial Manager at Logicenters.

The new building will give Bring the opportunity to build its large-scale Shelfless auto storage solution in Køge. The system is a total solution where technology enables stores to focus fully on their sales while Bring manages all processes from purchasing to delivery.

“Shelfless is a major and important investment in our ambition to be a leader in e-commerce in the Nordic region. It is great that construction is now under way and that we now have the start of Shelfless in Denmark in sight. Completion is expected in a year’s time. This cooperation with Logicenters has worked well and its ability to meet our requirements for flexibility and sustainability has been crucial,” says Tobias Åbonde, Nordic Director for Bring’s Shelfless investment.

Continued growth in the Copenhagen region: Logicenters leases 14,000 m2 in Køge for Brings’ large e-commerce investment

December 7, 2021 12:09 pm Comments Off

Logicenters is now commencing the development of another 38,000 m² warehouse in Køge outside Copenhagen. In addition to this, Logicenters has signed a lease with Bring. Initially, the lease concerns a 14 000 m² logistics property adapted for e-commerce.

In the autumn of 2021, Logicenters began the fourth stage of development at its 160,000 m² site in Køge, Denmark. The tenant will be post- and logistics company Bring. Of the total area of 38,000 m², Bring will initially lease 14,000 m² with the aim of doubling this in a second stage. The facility will be adapted for their investment in automated e-commerce logistics to be able to offer fast and green deliveries to their customers.

“We are very pleased to be expanding our collaboration with Bring. We at Logicenters think it is important to be able to meet our customers’ needs and the fact that Bring wants to continue to grow with us is good proof of this. Secondly, Køge is a place where we are well established and we are certain that it will remain a key hub for transport and logistics companies,” says Matthias Kettelhoit, CEO of Logicenters.

Bring will incorporate its autostore solution Shelfless in the logistics property. Shelfless is an overall solution which uses technology to enable stores to focus entirely on sales while Bring manages all processes related to warehousing and delivery.

“Today, our customers have high demands on delivery time, price and sustainability. To meet these requirements, we have developed an automated fulfilment solution, a kind of plug and play solution, that only the largest e-retailers have had access to before. The geographical location in Køge means that we will be able to offer same-day delivery to 2 million Danes, says Rickard Slettmyr, responsible for the establishment of Shelfless in the Nordic region.

Located just south of Copenhagen, Køge is an outstanding strategic location for logistics companies, close to both the port and the E20, E55 and E47 European motorways. The facility will also be constructed in line with Logicenters’ clear environmental profile.
