Goodman Starts Work On New Warehouse For Berry Bros & Rudd
Goodman has commenced construction work on a 117,500 sq ft warehouse at Andover Business Park for Britain's oldest wine and spirit merchant, Berry Bros. & Rudd.
The warehouse is set to be the largest fine wine storage facility for private clients in Europe, with the capacity to store more than 14 million bottles of wine at optimum temperature in a humidity-controlled environment.
Spanning almost 100 acres of highly sought after serviced land, Andover Business Park is ideally placed to serve the South East and West of the UK. A prime e-commerce and distribution destination, already home to the Co-operative Group and global bakery firm Rich Products, those operating from the area benefit from direct access to the A303 and close proximity to the M25, A303 and A34, providing links to Southampton via the M4 and M40.
The leading-edge facility will be carbon neutral, generating its own energy supply alongside utilising rainwater harvesting and electric vehicle (EV) charging points.
George Glennie, Development Director at Goodman, said: "Our approach is to meet the increasing demand for strategically located logistics space with easy access to large consumer markets.
"This site at Andover Business Park is set to become the largest fine wine storage facility in Europe. On completion, it will provide Berry Bros. & Rudd with state-of-the-art, flexible and carbon neutral space to service their clients' rising demand."
