Due to its strategic location, Businesspark Stichtsekant is an attractive site for a diverse range of businesses. Panattoni's new building covers approximately 23,420 m² and can be easily divided into five smaller units starting from around 3,700 m². Each unit is identical, featuring a minimum of four different loading docks, one overhead door, mezzanine, office space, and storage area. The flexible design allows the entire building or individual units to be leased, providing opportunities for businesses interested in one or more units, as well as those looking to utilize the full 23,420 m².
Gustave Pol, Senior Acquirer Economic Affairs Municipality of Almere, stated: "The layout of Panattoni Park Amsterdam City East with five smaller units is also interesting for Amsterdam City East-based companies seeking growth and for companies in 'last-mile logistics' targeting the Amsterdam and Utrecht regions. Both will significantly contribute to the growth of employment in Almere,aligning with the local workforce."
Panattoni Park Amsterdam City East is being developed in accordance with BREEAM-NL standards, ensuring it meets strict sustainability requirements. The building will be gas-free, and the roof will be prepared for solar energy generation. Completion is scheduled for early 2025.
Twelve Million People Within One Hour's Drive
For many companies, including logistics service providers, food, and e-commerce businesses, proximity to the consumer is essential. This not only enables faster delivery but also makes it more sustainable transportation due to shorter distances by road.
With a reach of approximately twelve million people within about an hour's drive, the Amsterdam City East Stichtsekant industrial Businesspark is strategically advantageous. Various leading companies have chosen this location as the base for their logistics operations, including Volvo, Lidl, Hunkemöller, PostNL, Royal A-ware, Flamco, Dimensio, LIS Logistics, Geodis, and Antalis.
Jeroen Gerritsen, General Director of Panattoni Netherlands, says, "Due to its strategic location relative to several major cities, Businesspark Stichtsekant is a significant logistics hub. Panattoni Park Amsterdam City East is located at Stichtsekant directly on the A27 highway, less than 30 minutes' drive from Amsterdam and Utrecht. This makes our new multifunctional building highly suitable for companies involved in last-mile delivery."
Green Businesspark
Businesspark Stichtsekant is characterized by its green design. The upcoming Panattoni building will directly border a newly created park with trees and plants that enhance the area's biodiversity. Employees can enjoy a walk during breaks or have an outdoor lunch in this green space.
The green zone on Stichtsekant includes not only plants and trees but also water retention fields. Rainwater can flow directly from the roofs and grounds of the industrial buildings to the adjacent retention basins. This preserves excess water in Stichtsekant, preventing water drainage and landscape desiccation. Additionally, this approach creates a unique ecological landscape.
Cycling to Work
More and more people are choosing to cycle to work. To encourage the use of bicycles, future employees of Panattoni Park Amsterdam City East will have access to spacious bicycle parking equipped with ample lighting for safety. Moreover, the building will feature comfortable showers so that employees can freshen up after their bike ride.
The Municipality is also contributing to promoting this sustainable commuting method. Bicycle parking and a bicycle carousel, where you can pick up a bike, will be available near the bus stops on the industrial estate. The Municipality is also working to improve safety for cyclists on the industrial estate.
For those not commuting by bike, Panattoni Park Amsterdam City East is easily accessible by public transport or electric car. The parking lot at the building will have multiple electric chargers.
