Chancerygate and specialist sustainable and impact investor, Bridges Fund Management have been granted planning permission to build 170,000 sq ft of Grade A sustainable urban logistics space in Adlington, Cheshire.

Called Avro Business Park, the scheme is located on a 7.8-acre site off London Road, south of Poynton town centre, and will adjoin Adlington Business Park and Adlington Industrial Estate.

It will comprise 11 units ranging from 7,000 sq ft to 29,000 sq ft, available on a leasehold or freehold basis. The scheme has a projected gross development value of around £36m and could create up to 250 jobs.

Construction is scheduled to commence in October, with practical completion expected October 2025.

Neighbouring occupiers to the development include confectionery manufacturer Swizzels, tray sealing and packaging line specialist Proseal, and transport company William Kirk.

All properties at the development will target an EPC rating of A+ and a BREEAM Excellent rating. They will feature electric vehicle charging points along with solar photovoltaic cells which provide occupiers with affordable green energy.

In addition, the units will be constructed from high-performance building materials to reduce CO2 emissions.

Chancerygate development director, Chris Brown, who is based in the company's Warrington office, said: "Avro Business Park is in an excellent location, with fantastic connections to the airport and the M56 via the new Poynton Relief Road.

"The area is witnessing an increasing shift to ESG-led developments, from both the occupational and investor market.

"Our development will help satisfy this strong demand for sustainable, high specification urban logistics accommodation within the south Manchester and Cheshire markets."
