DFDS has signed a leasehold for DC7, a 246,685 sq ft grade-A industrial unit located at Prologis Park, Kettering.

DC7, located in the Midlands, off Junction 7 of the A14, benefits from access to the UK’s transport corridors. The facility is also operationally ready and features £2.3m of installed infrastructure.

Additionally, the building has 183 parking bays and 55 HGV spaces, while meeting the BREEAM Excellent certification.

The latest acquisition ties in with DFDS’s expansion initiative of its third-party logistics operations in the Midlands.

Matt O’Dell, managing director UK at DFDS, said: “The leasehold acquisition of DC7 is a significant milestone in our strategy to strengthen DFDS’s logistics footprint in the UK. This facility provides the scale, connectivity and sustainability credentials we need to deliver best-in-class solutions for our customers.”
