£8.65m financing secured for Haydock 66
Newport Logistics Fund II has arranged £8.65m of loan financing from Merseyside Pension Fund for Panattoni Haydock 66, a Grade A industrial unit in Haydock, UK.
The asset is located in an established North West logistics market within the Liverpool–Manchester corridor, with strong access to the M6/M62 motorway network and a broad occupier catchment. This location, combined with high building specification and ambitious sustainability targets, supports the asset’s long-term leasing appeal and relevance to both tenants and capital providers.
Panattoni Haydock 66 offers 6,120 sqm of industrial space and is situated 1.5 miles from Junction 23 of the M6. The building provides an 11 m clear internal height, a 56 m yard, six dock doors, three level access doors and power capacity of up to 500 kVA. It also includes generous parking, including 65 car spaces, and a secure yard.
In line with Newport’s focus on institutional-grade logistics assets, the building is targeting BREEAM Outstanding and EPC A. It has been designed with a PV-ready rooftop and EV charging infrastructure, supporting alignment with evolving occupier and investor expectations.
The financing marks another milestone for Newport Logistics Fund II in the UK and reflects lender confidence in the asset. The unit is ready for immediate fit-out. Merseyside Pension Fund was advised by CBRE UK Lending.
Rosenbauer expands at Newport’s Linz asset
Rosenbauer has expanded at Newport’s Linz asset in Austria, strengthening the occupier story of the property within Newport Logistics Fund II. Following the expansion, the company will occupy more than 15,000 m² in total.
The asset, known locally as Panattoni Park Ennshafen, is located in Upper Austria, between Linz and Vienna, within the Ennshafen industrial estate. The location offers trimodal connectivity via inland waterway, rail and road infrastructure, including access to the Rhine–Main–Danube corridor, a nearby container terminal, and direct links to the B1 and A1.
Rosenbauer is one of the world’s leading manufacturers of firefighting vehicles and equipment. The company was the first occupier at the park and selected the site in Enns to support its logistics operations in Austria.
Growth by an existing occupier is a meaningful indicator. It points to the relevance of the location, the suitability of the building for day-to-day operations and the continued attractiveness of the property to industrial users.
The property forms part of Newport Logistics Fund II, focused on full-cycle industrial real estate development in Europe. Panattoni Park Ennshafen was also the first project financed by the fund.
