Panattoni completes one of the UK’s tallest built-to-suit warehouses, located in Ipswich at the Sproughton Enterprise Park adjacent to J54 of the A14. Panattoni delivered a turnkey service of the 260,000 sq ft, bespoke warehouse unit with high bay elements up to 40m built specifically for LDH (La Doria) Ltd’s distribution needs.

LDH (La Doria) Ltd is the leading UK own label supplier of canned tomato products, fish, fruit, vegetables, dried pasta and other ambient foods to the UK supermarkets and they required a single warehousing unit containing three-storey office space along with a two-storey hub office.

Panattoni worked closely with LDH (La Doria) Ltd to make sure the project could be delivered in a timescale to meet their requirements; the unique facility was completed in Q1 2020.

Simon Jenkins, Development Director at Panattoni said: “It was a challenging brief, we needed to understand the technical requirements fully and demonstrate that Panattoni had the skills and knowledge to deliver such a complex Build-to-Suit project and integrate the highly automated fitout.”

Ian Anderson, Project Director at Panattoni said: “A complex project like this can only be successful if the best team is in place, we have worked with our design, engineering and construction partners to deliver a solution which we can all be proud of.”
