Panattoni Netherlands starts development of distribution center near A2 motorway in Wessem, Limburg.

Panattoni Netherlands, part of Panattoni Europe, starts the development of an ultra-modern logistics distribution center near the A2 highway in Wessem, region Limburg in the South of the Netherlands.

The new development consists of 23,450 sqm’s, of which the distribution center covers 21,075 sqm’s and the office plus mezzanine 2,375 sqm’s. 20 Loading docks and 214 on-site parking spaces will be realized. The development is available for lease.

Distribution center Wessem is located right next to the A2 motorway and a few kilometers from the junction of the A2 with the A73. The excellent visibility from the A2 with 75,000 vehicles passing by per day, offers companies the unique opportunity to present themselves to a large audience.

The new complex will meet BREEAM's "Very Good" standard. Delivery is planned in the first quarter of 2022. Wessem is Panattoni's second project in Limburg; In June, the development of two distribution centers in Roermond, totaling 43,255 sqm’s, was already started.

Jeroen Gerritsen, General Manager Panattoni Netherlands: “This is the second project in Limburg, 12 months after Panattoni came to the Netherlands. We see a lot of future in Central and South Limburg, because we notice that there is good availability of personnel to be able to properly staff the distribution centers. The strategic location in relation to the German hinterland and the option of four airports within an hour's drive, make the region extremely suitable for companies operating internationally.

The accessibility of the distribution center at the “Op den Dries number 1”  location is optimal for employees. It is close to a bus stop that connects to the NS Intercity station in Roermond within 20 minutes. The highway exit of the A2 is one kilometer away. And within 15 minutes you are at the container terminal of BCTN in Roermond. What makes this development really unique is the visibility from the A2 motorway. ”
