Euro Car Parts signs deal for Leeds facility

Acting on behalf of Solvgrin Ltd, CBRE’s Leeds Industrial Agency team and joint agent Gent Visick have secured a ten year lease to the UK’s leading car parts distributor, Euro Car Parts, on site 4A/5 Pontefract Lane in Cross Green Industrial Estate, Leeds. BTS Consultants acted for Euro Car Parts.

Solvgrin Ltd have constructed a brand new 20,700 sq ft high-specification warehouse for the renowned distributor, in a highly prominent location overlooking Pontefract Lane (A63), which connects directly to the East Leeds Link Road giving direct access to Junction 45 of the M1.

Solvgrin have also secured planning consent to construct a further 6,000 sq ft detached industrial unit adjacent to the Euro Car Parts site.

The latest deal is yet another welcome addition to the key industrial area of Leeds around J45 of the M1 which has recently seen rapid transformation with schemes such as Gateway45, Connex 45 and Kinetic45 making the area one of the most strategic industrial locations in the north.

Neighbouring occupiers to the established Cross Green Industrial Estate include Barkston Plastics, Tool Station, Yorkshire Produce Centre, Norbert Dentresseangle, William Cook Cast Products and Norish.

Mike Baugh, Senior Director of Industrial Agency at CBRE Leeds, said; “We are pleased to have secured Euro Car Parts as a tenant for this highly prominent scheme.  Solvgrin have constructed a very attractive unit at this gateway to Leeds site, which continues the success of this part of the city as an industrial, distribution and manufacturing hub. Occupiers are drawn to this area due to a combination of excellent connectivity and proximity to the city centre for both attracting and retaining talent.”

Paul Mack, Director at Gent Visick, said; “We continue to see very strong occupational demand for modern/new build warehouse and distribution premises in Leeds, particularly in the Aire Valley which has seen an incredible transformation over the past three years.”
