GLP, a leading investor and developer of logistics warehouses and distribution parks announces today that it has successfully leased its 30,000 SQ M logistics warehouse G-Park Valls (Tarragona), in Catalonia, to Aosom, an online store specialising in outdoor living, home decor, sporting goods, health & beauty and more. Aosom is a new customer relationship for GLP.
G-Park Valls (Tarragona) is well located within the third logistics ring of Barcelona, with excellent transport connections and will serve as Aosom’s regional distribution centre to facilitate the supply chain of the growing e-commerce company. The site is 25 kilometers from the port of Tarragona and 90 kilometers from the Barcelona-El Prat Josep Taradellas airport.
The state-of-the-art facility and strategic location will enable Aosom to increase its inventory capacity, speed up the logistics process and expand its range of distribution to a wider customer base throughout the Iberian Peninsula including Portugal.
The logistics centre is fully integrated in to its natural surroundings and holds a BREEAM “Very Good” certification, reflecting GLP’s commitment to the development of sustainable spaces throughout its European portfolio.
G-Park Valls is the first investment of GLP in the Catalonia region, and the successful lease affirms GLP’s investment in the area.
Óscar Heras, Country Manager of GLP Spain, said: “We are delighted to welcome Aosom as customers in our G-Park Valls. This development reaffirms our commitment to Tarragona as an important hub in the Spanish logistics market. We will continue to invest in Catalonia, a strategic regional market for GLP’s ambitious business plan in Spain, which we continue to develop and execute.”
Emi Chen, CEO – General Manager of Aosom: “As an e-commerce business, the leasing of G-Park Valls is strategic for the evolution of AOSOM’s businesses in Spain in which we combine a new generation warehouse with the proximity to the main transport links including the port of Tarragona”.
