Indurent and PLP team up for Leicestershire shed

Indurent and PLP have submitted a detailed planning application to North West Leicestershire District Council for the development of a grade-A 644,000 sq ft logistics facility. The site spans 38 acres and is located immediately adjacent to Junction 24A of the M1, providing direct access to 85% of the UK population within a four-hour drive time. The proposed development, designed by Michael Sparks Associates, will be delivered speculatively and is targeted for completion in Q1 2026. The building has been designed for large-scale logistics and industrial occupiers, who face a national shortage of well-connected buildings in the 600,000 sq ft size range. Jake Shilston, development director at Indurent, said: “Our proposal for this site will provide businesses with a state-of-the-art logistics facility in a prime location in the Golden Triangle, with easy access to customers across the UK and Europe. We are confident this development will boost economic growth by creating employment opportunities for local residents and businesses in North West Leicestershire and the East Midlands.” Neil Dickinson, chief investment officer, at PLP said: “PLP looks forward to working closely with Indurent to deliver an extremely rare opportunity within the UK market. This speculative development will be delivered to a high specification in a prime location, and I have no doubt that we will secure a blue-chip occupier for this facility.” The cross-docked unit will provide up to 5.4 MVA of power.
