Logicor completes back-to-back letting as Morrisons takes over former Tesco distribution facility in Maidstone

March 19, 2026 | Lucy Dollimore

  • Strong demand for specific cold- store results in seamless back-to-back leasing to Morrisons
  • Morrisons to expand supply chain capability across Southeast

19 March 2026: Logicor has secured Morrisons as the new customer for a 264,688 sq ft warehouse in Snodland, Kent, previously occupied by Tesco.

This deal expands Morrisons presence in Logicor's UK portfolio and supports its growing distribution network in the Southeast.

Strategically located closely to the key motorways of the M20 and M2, the facility at Snodland is in addition to an existing 331,625 sq ft unit in Northampton, which Morrisons has leased from Logicor for over 10 years.

The agreement follows Tesco's decision to vacate the premises, with Logicor negotiating with both Tesco and Morrisons to deliver a seamless back-to-back transition of occupation, which reduced carbon impact by reusing the chilled-store equipment and maintained effective operations.

This lease to Morrisons in Maidstone is a brilliant example of an existing customer looking to expand its footprint within Logicor's portfolio to serve their end consumers effectively. It also highlights the strength of the Southeast logistics market for well located real estate.

"The team worked hard to coordinate Tesco's end of lease to coincide with Morrison's start, ensuring the cold store equipment was maintained without needing to decommission the facility, maintaining the efficiency of the site."

Jack Garrett

Logicor Director of Asset Management, UK

Increasing our footprint within Logicor's UK portfolio will allow us to expand our operational capacity quickly and efficiently. The building's existing cold-storage configuration means we can quickly be fully operational, which is essential for our UK network.

"We value Logicor's pragmatic approach to this lease and look forward to furthering our existing relationship with the team as our logistics needs evolve."

Ben Kallend

Property Director, Morrisons

Savills acted for Tesco, and Colliers acted for Morrisons.
