AO.com to move into Crossflow380

LISTED online white goods retailer AO.com has agreed an off-market deal to occupy the entire Crossflow380 building in Crewe.

Represented by real estate adviser Savills, the Bolton-based company has signed a new 10-year lease with Prologis for the 386,753sq ft distribution warehouse, complementing its existing 360,000sq ft facility in Crewe.
 
Crossflow 380, on Weston Road, provides links to the national motorway network via the nearby Junction 16 of the M6.
   
Jonathan Atherton, industrial director at Savills, said: “We are pleased to have completed this significant acquisition to facilitate the continued expansion of AO.com.

Claire Henderson from DLA Piper’s real estate team advised AO.com.

“Crewe has firmly become AO’s logistics base for the UK, offering both connectivity to the M6 and a strong local workforce. Both factors influenced the decision to expand in the town.”
