Panattoni presses ahead with next phase at Wingates 

The developer has let two units totalling 360,000 sq ft at the Bolton industrial park to couriers UPS and Evri and has now submitted plans for a third. 

With work on phase one completed, Panattoni UK’s attention now turns to the last vacant parcel at the 21-acre former Bernstein’s Kitchen Factory site. 

Located off Great Bank Road within Wingates Industrial Estate, the third unit within Pannatoni’s masterplan would provide 48,000 sq ft of logistics space and benefit from 36 parking spaces. 

Panattoni was granted hybrid planning permission for a total of 417,000 sq ft of industrial and logistics space in October 2020.  

Consent for the Evri and UPS units was received in full, while outline permission was granted for the third and smallest unit.

Now, Panattoni is requesting full consent for the final piece of the Wingates jigsaw.
