• Logicenters appoints solar energy expert

  April 14, 2022 7:49 am Comments Off on Logicenters appoints solar energy expert

  Logicenters is continuing to take the lead in a CO₂-neutral property sector. The company’s commitment to solar energy has now been strengthened with the recruitment of Jon Malmsten, who will be responsible for the logistics property company’s sustainable energy solutions.

  With a sustainability goal to be completely climate neutral by 2028, Logicenters needs to develop all areas of its operations. The ambitious solar strategy has already been implemented at the majority of the company’s logistics facilities and this commitment is now being further developed with a key appointment in this field.

  As of 1 April, Jon Malmsten has been employed at Logicenters as Energy transition expert with responsibility for sustainability and energy solutions at properties under management as well as in development projects.

  “Personally, I believe it is as natural to incorporate solar cells on the roof of a facility as it is to build floors and walls inside. Our facilities already cover a total area of more than two million m² and our ambition is to cover this whole area with solar cells. Logicenters currently has more than 20 facilities with solar cell installation, a figure that is set to double as a result of ongoing customer dialogue. Having said that, we are certain that Jon’s days with us will be easy to fill and this is a key appointment for us,” says Matthias Kettelhoit, CEO at Logicenters.

  Jon Malmsten joins us from Aktea Energy, where he was responsible for strategy and the needs analysis of charging infrastructure for companies planning to switch to fossil-free operation for their service vehicles. He has also previously worked as a lecturer at the University of Gotland, focusing on wind power technology.

  “I am very excited to have this opportunity to challenge myself and contribute towards the high sustainability goals of a CO₂-neutral company. As builders of large logistics facilities, we have excellent conditions and thus a responsibility to take a leading role in the installation of solar energy on our large roofs. There are also interesting synergies here, as solar power can charge the electric distribution vehicles of the future. There is a great deal going on in the market right now and Logicenters can make a difference,” says Jon Malmsten.

• Logicenters invests in Moss – acquires 70,000 m2 site

  February 7, 2022 8:52 am Comments Off on Logicenters invests in Moss – acquires 70,000 m2 site

  The logistics property company is continuing to expand its presence in Norway. Logicenters has now announced that it has acquired a 70,000 m² site from Skolt. Construction is expected to begin in the first quarter of 2023 and the entire developed logistics park is scheduled for completion in 2025.

  Logicenters has acquired a site on speculation in Moss, Norway. During the first quarter of 2022, Logicenters will start preparing the land, which is expected to be ready for construction in the fourth quarter of 2022. To begin with, a building will be constructed on the site which will later become part of a developed logistics park. Construction of the planned property will begin in the first quarter of 2023. The entire logistics park is scheduled to be fully developed during 2025.

  The logistics property company is in dialogue with several exciting companies, for whom Logicenters wants to develop facilities at the new logistics park in Moss.

  “We are delighted to have secured this site in Moss. The area has seen strong growth in recent years and we can see that development in Moss is off to a good start. With tenants in the area such as Greencarrier, Europris, HelloFresh, Onna Greens, Altus Logisitics, Etac and Rockwoll, Moss logistics park has been on the map for major logistics companies for some time. Moss also has a good supply of labour, which we are finding is becoming increasingly important to logistics companies. The park is also located right next to the port of Moss and its dry dock. So there are great opportunities to move goods in and out of the country easily using containers and ships that are more environmentally friendly than heavy transport. Our ambition is to develop a state-of-the-art property with a strong focus on the environment, sustainability and energy efficiency. We are currently looking for major tenants who focus on the same factors as us. We would like to thank Skolt for a smooth process and look forward to further cooperation in the preparation of the park,” says Ruben Krantz, Commercial Manager at Logicenters.

  The logistics park in Moss is strategically located close to Oslo, Moss Airport and Rygge.

  “I would like to thank Logicenters for a very professional and smooth process. I look forward to continued great collaboration in the future,” says Karsten F. Hansen, CEO at Skolt.

• Logicenters begins expansion in Wroclaw, Poland

  January 17, 2022 1:41 pm Comments Off on Logicenters begins expansion in Wroclaw, Poland

  Following its launch into Poland, Logicenters is now beginning the expansion of its logistics facility in Wroclaw, Poland. The expansion will add 22,500 m² of space and the new section is scheduled for completion in the last quarter of 2022.

  In the summer of 2021, the logistics property company announced its intention to expand its presence outside the Nordic region with its first venture in Poland. As a first step, Logicenters acquired the Polish company BIK SA and its current portfolio, with the total logistics space estimated to be more than 115,000 m².

  Logicenters is now beginning the expansion at Nowa Wies Wroclawska in Wroclaw, south-west Poland. The expansion will add a total of 22,500 m² space. Atlas Ward has been chosen as General Contractor, and the project is being developed on speculative basis due to the leasing dynamics in the Wroclaw market. In line with Logicenters’ sustainability profile, the expansion of the property in Wroclaw will be of a high standard with careful selection of materials used for the construction.

  “We are delighted that construction is finally under way for our facility in Wroclaw. Our goal is, and always has been, to develop high quality, sustainable buildings of the future. The Polish logistics market offers huge potential, which is one of the key reasons why we have chosen to establish operations here. I believe that Wroclaw will continue to be an important location for growth and for expanding our presence outside the Nordic region,” says Søren Rodian Olsen, CEO, Logicenters Poland.

  Wroclaw is in a strategically important location with a high population density, large factory clusters and easy access to the E4 European motorway.

  “The demand for modern warehouse spaces remains at a very high level today. At the same time, we see a great demand for facilities that are available immediately. That is why we are starting an investment that we are implementing on a speculative basis. We are also negotiating with potential tenants. We are convinced that we will manage to commercialize the entire facility the following periods. The great advantage of our investment is that the location is close to the Wroclaw agglomeration and in the immediate vicinity of the motorway – ensuring quick and convenient access,” says Krzysztof Mucha, Business Development Manager, Biuro Inwestycji Kapitalowych S.A.

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

  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.
