Panattoni Fully Lets Crawley Logistics Scheme with Major E-commerce Deal

Panattoni has completed the leasing of its Panattoni Park Crawley scheme in the South East of United Kingdom, securing a 10-year agreement with a major e-commerce occupier for the entire 200,000 sq ft facility.

The transaction represents the largest logistics letting in the region so far this year and brings the development to full occupancy. The scheme was delivered without a pre-let in a location characterised by limited availability of large-scale distribution space.

Panattoni Park Crawley is situated near Gatwick Airport and close to the M23 motorway, providing access to key population centres and international freight routes. The project was originally designed as two separate units, with the option to combine them into a single facility, which has now been taken up by one tenant.

The building has been developed to meet current operational and environmental requirements, including high internal clearance, expanded storage capacity and energy efficiency features. Sustainability elements include rooftop solar installations and performance ratings aligned with current market standards.

David McGougan, Senior Development Director for South East at Panattoni, said: “This letting underlines the depth of demand for high-quality, immediately available logistics space in the South East, particularly at scale. Panattoni Park Crawley offered a rare opportunity to secure a 200,000 sq ft facility in a prime location with direct access to Gatwick and the M23.

“The scheme was designed to meet the requirements of modern logistics occupiers, combining scale, specification, and sustainability. Securing this letting demonstrates the continued strength of the market for well-located, future-ready space.

“We are pleased to have let the unit following the recent completion of the facility and continue to see space occupied by the e-commerce sector.”

The deal reflects ongoing demand for modern logistics space in supply-constrained locations, particularly from online retail operators seeking well-connected distribution hubs.
