Peel Ports to build new warehouse for Liverpool

[ May 30, 2023   //   ]

Peel Ports Group is investing £28 million in the Port of Liverpool in its biggest single investment in warehousing this year.

Construction of the 240,000sq ft Alexandra Dock Multi-User Warehouse will begin shortly. It will be the length of up to five football pitches (400 metres) and able to store a variety of unitised and non-unitised commodities. It will also have 300 metres of dedicated quayside and cranes.

Peel Ports’ chief operating officer, David Huck, said: “We’ve seen a significant increase in demand for warehousing, and this huge new facility provides an opportunity for new customers looking for capacity to grow their business, as well as allowing existing customers the chance to expand their operational capacity at the port.

“This also represents a very important milestone for Peel Ports Group, enhancing both our warehousing and distribution offerings while enabling more sustainable port-centric solutions.

The project is expected to be completed in April 2024 and the work will be carried out by leading construction company Glencar.
