On-line shopping could fuel demand

Following DPD’s £1 million investment in a new 43,000 sq ft purpose-built depot in Raunds, its former facility has come to the market and is being offered to let by commercial property agent Prop-Search.

The depot at Francis Court in Rushden comprises a detached steel frame building and offers a warehouse area of 17,547 sq ft with 17 loading doors - 14 of which are cross-dock - with an eaves height of five metres.  Offices are provided on two floors and offer a total of 5,140 sq ft including reception, canteen, staff kitchen, conference room and additional staff facilities.

Externally, there is a large open service yard with separate car parking for 50 plus vehicles.

Simon Toseland, a Director of Prop-Search, said: “As on-line shopping continues to see continued growth, there is increasing demand for delivery depots of this nature.  This purpose-built warehouse facility would be ideal for a freight forwarding company or parcel delivery firm and we expect of receive good levels of demand.”
