Hortons has lodged plans to develop around 270,000 sq ft of new industrial and logistics space near the Rolls-Royce Sinfin campus in Derby, targeting businesses seeking modern, sustainable units with strong transport links.
The proposed redevelopment of the 23-acre Sinfin Commercial Park includes 17 new units, ranging from 5,000 to 70,000 square feet. The site offers direct access to key transportation routes, including the A50 and M1, making it a strategic option for distribution and light industrial occupiers.
The scheme is designed to meet EPC A+ standards and incorporates electric vehicle charging infrastructure, photovoltaic panels, and landscaped green amenity areas to support environmental performance and workforce wellbeing.
Demolition has already begun on a redundant 207,000 sq ft warehouse to prepare for the build, following Hortons’ acquisition of the vacant unit last year. The firm also previously acquired 21 entirely let warehouse units on the neighbouring estate.
