New Tenant for DP World London Gateway Haulage Park
2nd November 2017
ATL Haulage Contractors, an Essex-based logistics provider, has entered into an agreement for a 2.64 acre HGV yard at London Gateway, which will provide parking for up to 80 trucks. DP World London Gateway will develop the facility, which will be operational by June 2018, and serve as ATL’s operational base as well as hosting the firm’s new headquarters.
ATL has seen a big increase in the number of container movements in and out of DP World London Gateway, and being strategically positioned at the UK’s most integrated logistics hub will allow ATL to better serve its current and future customers.
SH Pratt Group, one of Europe’s biggest fruit importers, also agreed a lease earlier in the summer to take a 108,555 sq. ft. bespoke facility at DP World London Gateway Logistics Park, which will house the company’s new venture ‘Halo’. UPS has also started operating out of its 345,000 sq ft state-of-the-art parcel sorting hub.
Oliver Treneman, Park Development Director, DP World London Gateway, said: “Once goods have arrived at DP London Gateway via its deep-sea port terminal, it is vital that they can then be transported onwards reliably and efficiently. From a supply chain perspective, having an established haulage park within the Logistics Park makes perfect sense, and we’re delighted to be welcoming ATL, a local Essex business, as our latest tenant on the new haulage park, which is filling fast.”
