Eurofit Group – a leading European tyre-wheel assembly specialist – has chosen Prologis Park Coventry for its first UK operation, leasing the newly refurbished 105,000 sq ft DC105. The move marks a major milestone as Eurofit enters the market. Being based in the Midlands, the company will be close to its automotive partners, with the infrastructure to support growth and serve customers efficiently.
Jan Blaauw, General Manager at Eurofit Group, said: “Expanding into the UK is a milestone for Eurofit. Coventry’s position at the centre of the UK automotive sector makes it the ideal location for us to establish our operations, close to our OEM partners and with the right infrastructure to support our growth.”
The facility has been refurbished to Prologis’ high sustainability standards and holds an EPC A+ rating. It features energy-efficient LED lighting and smart metering to optimise energy use. With a solar-ready roof capable of generating energy savings of approximately £45,000 a year and provision for EV charging, the building supports Eurofit’s long-term operational and environmental goals.
With Eurofit’s arrival, Prologis Park Coventry is now fully leased – underlining the park’s position within the UK’s prime Golden Triangle logistics corridor and its appeal to both logistics and automotive businesses.
Offering excellent connectivity, with five motorways within 15 miles, the park provides fast access to major manufacturing hubs, ports, and population centres – demonstrating the strength of Prologis’ platform in delivering high-quality, strategically located space.
To meet continued demand, Prologis has brought forward the final land plot at the park. It can accommodate either one larger build-to-suit facility of up to approximately 600,000 sq ft – ideal for a single occupier seeking scale in a prime automotive location – or two smaller build-to-suit facilities with footprints starting from around 250,000 sq ft.
Tom Price, Director of Leasing at Prologis UK, said: “Eurofit’s arrival highlights both the international appeal of Prologis Park Coventry and the importance of the Midlands as a hub for the automotive industry. With the park now fully leased, we’re excited to progress the final build-to-suit opportunities – giving customers the chance to secure bespoke, future-ready space in this proven location.”
The momentum at Prologis Park Coventry reflects wider market trends identified in Prologis Research’s Persistent Supply Constraints Position Europe for Value Growth report. Across the UK, availability of modern logistics space stands at just 4% – around half the broader market average of 8% – with occupiers consistently rewarding quality, paying an average 9% rental premium for modern facilities.
