Welcome

FI Real Estate Management (FIREM) is pleased to present its ideas for its £65m development proposals at Land known as “Kingmoor” located at Land east of Bryn Lane, Wrexham Industrial Estate, Wrexham, LL13 9UT through this online exhibition and community consultation.

Wrexham Industrial Estate is the second largest such estate in the UK, host to over 300 companies, and a strategically important employment location for Wrexham and the wider North Wales economy.  Investment in new premises is central to maintaining the presence of existing businesses and encouraging new enterprises.  FIREM asset manages over  500,000  sq ft of industrial space across the Estate and has a development pipeline of circa 2m sq ft over the next 5 years.

FIREM is developing its proposals for development of the Kingmoor site in response to demand for a strategically placed and sustainable large scale Logistics Park for warehouse and distribution (Class B8 Use).

We believe this proposal will enhance and complement the quality units on offer within the Estate, providing a major boost to employment in Wrexham.

FIREM hopes to bring forward development in late 2023 following grant of planning permission in summer 2023.

The Proposal

Key elements of the proposed development envisaged for the site are as follows:

  • 2 or 3 independent logistic warehouses, with a potential combined floorspace totalling 93,019sqm (1,001,250 sqft)
  • Each unit is designed for use for major logistics operations encompass warehousing space (Use Class B8) and complementary office space and ancillary uses
  • Potential full-time employment creation when complete is circa 1033 FTE jobs
  • Potential to create circa 510 construction jobs per annum over the 2 year construction period
  • Each unit will benefit from dedicated service yards to the front of each building and dedicated car parking for each unit
  • Provision for electric vehicle charging will supported to future proof the development
  • Proposed building heights will be up to 28m to ridgeline to accommodate internal high-bay racking systems that require clear heights of 25m to haunch
  • New buildings will be energy efficient with a target of BREEAM Excellent and EPC A rating
  • Total site area is 25.4 hectares, but only 55% or 13.97 hectares, will be built upon
  • Built development will be focused to the west and central areas of the site, adjacent to Bryn Lane across the road from Kelloggs, and between the new Net World Sports warehouse to the north and Very Groups’ operation to the south
  • Access will be off the existing Bryn Lane junction with a new north road link into the site
  • A Regionally significant Nature Area will be provided, including a major area for Great Crested Newts located to the east of the proposed buildings linked to ecological corridors north and south of the buildings
