The future of the UK’s digital economy relies heavily on industrial infrastructure and reliable access to power. As SEGRO’s Chief of Staff, Andrew Pilsworth, discusses in his article, The Balance of Power, meeting rising energy and power demands presents significant challenges.   We urge the Government to prioritise support for the industrial and logistics sector to ensure sufficient power availability where and when needed, and continuing to invest in energy infrastructure. These steps are essential to help the UK to transition to net-zero and establish a leading digital-enabled economy.   Read more about why a strategic focus on energy and power is crucial for economic growth:

Made for movement.   With key milestones being hit during 2024, SEGRO Logistics Park Northampton is progressing well.   Located at Junction 15 of the M1, the development is strategically located, with excellent connectivity and immediate access to the motorway. Its biggest competitive advantage is the dedicated Strategic Rail Freight Interchange (SRFI), which is due to be operational from next year, and will enable more goods to be transported by rail, reducing carbon emissions.   With best-in-class infrastructure and units targeting BREEAM ‘Excellent’ it marks SEGRO’s first UK development to achieve net zero carbon in all its units. Additionally, the development includes 18km of footpaths, 60,000 new trees to support biodiversity and provide parkland for residents to enjoy.   Read the detailed update in the Northampton Chronicle to find out more: https://lnkd.in/eBdPAjf5  

A truly memorable event with The Felix Project at SEGRO Park Deptford.   The Felix Project's new hub at SEGRO Park Deptford, which is part of the Coronation Food Project inaugurated by His Majesty The King, serves as a strong reminder of our collective aspiration to combat food waste and hunger in our local communities. The initiative is in collaboration with other food industry and food redistribution charities and looks to transform the UK’s food supply chains by maximising the use of surplus food. This redistribution not only uplifts local communities but also promotes sustainability by addressing food waste. Together we can make a meaningful difference in the communities we operate in.
