Work starts on Bognor Regis logistics park

Kier Construction has started work on a new landmark development comprising 11 high-quality logistics and trade counter units in the heart of Bognor Regis’s thriving commercial enterprise zone.

With planning consent granted, the scheme will deliver a total of 62,481m² of industrial space, with the units ranging in size from 1,036m² to 16,100m².

The site is located at the gateway to Enterprise Bognor Regis, a 70-hectare government-supported employment commercial initiative, which is poised to accommodate up to 150 businesses and create 4,000 new jobs.

With an emphasis on sustainability and operational efficiency, the development is aiming to achieve a BREEAM ‘Excellent’ rating. Each unit will therefore feature solar PV panels, fresh air ventilation systems and EV charging points.

Leigh Thomas, Group Managing Director for Kier Property, said: “We’re proud to have officially started on site at Trade and Logistics City, Bognor Regis. This marks a major milestone in delivering a future-ready industrial scheme that not only meets the operational needs of modern businesses but also supports their sustainability goals.

“The combination of flexible unit sizes, excellent transport links and a strong focus on energy efficiency makes this development a compelling opportunity for occupiers looking to grow in a strategic and forward-looking location. We look forward to seeing the scheme come to life over the coming months.”
