Plastic Omnium close to Omega deal
French manufacturer Plastic Omnium is expected to sign for a 265,000 sq ft warehouse at Omega South in Warrington before Christmas.
Omega Warrington, the joint venture between Miller and KUC Properties, submitted plans for a manufacturing warehouse for an unnamed occupier earlier this year and received planning permission in November.
The unit will include 20,000 sq ft of offices, and 300 car and truck parking spaces on a 10-acre site.
Plastic Omnium is part of the Jaguar Land Rover supply chain. JLR operates a manufacturing facility in Halewood.
It is understood that Plastic Omnium needs to be in situ by April. The company is expected to agree a deal on the premises before Christmas. Colliers International is acting for Plastic Omnium.
The premises are within Zone 7 of Omega South which was granted outline planning consent in May 2014 for 2.1m sq ft of logistics and manufacturing space, a new access road and a 35-acre green space.
Omega Warrington works in partnership with landowner the Homes & Communities Agency and is supported by Warrington Council and the Cheshire & Warrington Local Enterprise Partnership.
All parties declined to comment.
So where can requirements like this in future be met as Omega is close to complete…?
