INDUSTRIAL and warehouse developer Tungsten Properties has let its new 246,134 sq ft net zero carbon industrial unit in Warrington to Farmfoods, the frozen food and grocery supermarket chain.
Farmfoods is a 60-year-old family business that started as a butcher shop in Aberdeen and has since grown nationwide. The business operates more than 300 stores and four distribution centres which includes an existing facility in Warrington which they will retain and continue to operate from. Fit-out works will start in November.
The new facility is situated in an established distribution warehouse location at the intersection of the M6 and M56 motorways, just four miles south of Warrington town centre.
Tungsten Properties purchased the 11-acre site in 2020 and planning permission was granted in early 2021.
Ashleigh Hayes, associate development director, Tungsten Properties said: “We warmly welcome Farmfoods to their new distribution centre and wish them continued success as they deliver for their ever-expanding customer base.”
