The latest deal for a speculative industrial facility totalling 761,000 sq ft at Magna Park in Lutterworth is the largest yet to be brought forward by the a partnership between the logistics park developer GLP and Winvic.

MPN 761 will be the sixty-fourth industrial building that Winvic has been contracted to deliver with Net Zero Carbon requirements and it is set to achieve a BREEAM Outstanding rating and EPC A.

The sustainable design means it is 100% PV ready and WELL Building Standard compliant.

The building, with an 18m clear height to haunch, comprises a 716,662 sq ft warehouse, an 8,202 sq ft undercroft warehouse, a 1,615 sq ft plant deck and 34,667 sq ft space across a three-storey office and two transport offices; Winvic will fit out the offices to Cat A standards.

The project will be handed over to GLP in June 2025.

Danny Nelson, Managing Director of Industrial, Distribution and Logistics, said: “MPN 761 has become a special project for three reasons; it marks Winvic’s construction of 100 million square foot of industrial space, it’s GLP’s largest ever speculative unit and it has brought the start of a new and exciting contractor-client relationship.”
