Aaron Fox have negotiated the arrival of a major new company to the Heathfield Industrial Estate in Newton Abbot. Fowler Welch www.fowler-welch.co.uk is one the UK’s leading fast moving consumer goods supply chain organisations (FMCG) working with supermarkets, food manufacturers, growers and importers. They have selected Heltor Ltd www.heltor.co.uk to provide specialist services within the area and have signed a lease on the former Kay Transport site at Old Newton Road, Heathfield, Newton Abbot for an ambient distribution centre.
The organisation employs over 1,200 people nationally and has over 1,000,000 sq.ft. of both chilled and ambient warehouse space at it’s disposal. The company runs a fleet over 380 tractor units and over 800 trailers to meet its customer needs. The business has grown rapidly over the past 20 years and was acquired by the Dart Group PLC www.dartgroup.co.uk in 1994.
The building which once housed Batley Pet Foods and subsequently Kay Transport measures approximately 1,482 sq. meters on a site of 1.85 acres. The new tenant has installed a temperature controlled environment within the existing building and has employed some 30-40 new drivers for a fleet of 20-25 trucks ranging from 7 ½ to 38 tons. The facility will act as a transfer station and supply’s some of the principle supermarkets within the area with fresh food.
Aaron Fox negotiated a new lease for the property with a private landlord, thereby creating him an income stream from a vacant site. The asking rental of the warehouse and site was £76,000 p.a. (£4.76 p.s.f.) and a deal was struck around this level. The company is also marketing several other units on the estate with large yards such as 6 Fairfax Road which would be ideal for those occupiers looking to take space with an increased site area.
