Trebor Developments has selected Caddick has on behalf of The Prudential Assurance Company and M&G Real Estate to build Ark 42, a new 42,593 sq. ft industrial and logistics development at Trafford Park Road, Trafford Park.

Work on the development is now underway following a groundbreaking with project partners, Trebor Developments and project manager, JLL. The project will see Caddick deliver a BREEAM Excellent two-storey development, including 34,670 sq. ft of warehousing with 10m eaves.


The contract will include the construction of two storeys of Cat A office space occupying 7,923 sq. ft of the building and parking provision with EV charging. Work is expected to reach completion in time for spring 2025 occupancy.

Caddick's appointment to Ark 42 draws on the business' wider experience in industrial and logistics development, which last year saw the completion of Farington Park in Lancashire where Victorian Plumbing are set to occupy 544,000 sq. ft.

Dave Saville, Regional Managing Director of Caddick Construction North West, commented: "Our appointment to Ark 42 represents both our growth in the industrial and logistics sector and also our increasing footprint in Trafford, where there are some really exciting investments taking place. Being so well established in Manchester and the North West we have a network of local supply chain partners that we have engaged in our delivery of Ark 42."
