- The Danish company will lease the facility in El Pla de Santa María, Tarragona, to improve its distribution capabilities in Spain and southern France.
- The successful and remarkable outcome has been made possible through the collaboration between Logicor, Cushman & Wakefield, and ACCIÓ-Catalonia Trade & Investment (Government of Catalonia)
The strong commitment and collaboration between Logicor, Cushman & Wakefield and ACCIÓ-Catalonia Trade & Investment (Government of Catalonia) led to the achievement of a major milestone in driving a prosperous economic model in Catalonia, aligned with the decarbonization goals.
Normal, which has more than 900 stores across nine European countries, is making a strong debut in Spain by opening its first logistics centre less than 100 km from Barcelona and very close to the French border.
This new distribution hub will enable Normal to supply the Spanish, Portuguese and south Franch stores swiftly and efficiently. The Danish company's debut in Tarragona is also set to boost the local economy by creating skilled jobs in an area rich in qualified talent.
Favourable data on the availability of skilled labour in the region, a smooth working relationship among the parties, and Logicor's expertise in delivering customized solutions, all played a decisive role in securing the Deal.
The new logistics centre will offer much more than just warehouse space. Logicor will drive innovation, sustainability, and operational efficiency by undertaking a customization of the asset to improve the efficiency and operational experience.
Logicor will deliver upgrades, including constructing a mezzanine structure to increase the Gross Leasable Area (GLA) to 41,690 sqm, installing a climate-controlled storage facility essential for storing sensitive products and creating a specialised storage space for flammable goods in full compliance with safety standards.
