The site benefits from access to the wider motorway network, providing links across the Midlands, including Birmingham, Derby and Nottingham.<\/p>\n<p>Panattoni Park Rotherham comprises 710,000 sq ft and sits within the M1-M18 corridor, offering connectivity to major northern markets including Leeds and Manchester. The facility operates as a national distribution centre for its anchor occupier, while also supporting last-mile delivery requirements across the Sheffield region.<\/p>\n<p>Both assets meet high environmental standards, achieving EPC A ratings and BREEAM \u2018Very Good\u2019 certification. The sustainability credentials reflect growing demand among occupiers and investors for energy-efficient logistics facilities.<\/p>\n<p>James Keast, director at Europa Capital said: \u201cThis financing underlines the sustained lender interest in well-located, high-quality UK logistics assets, particularly those with strong sustainability credentials. Securing this financing following the development and stabilisation of these assets is an endorsement of our strategy and reflects our long-standing relationship with HSBC UK. Together with HSBC UK, we have secured a facility that supports stable, long-term income while allowing us to maintain capital discipline.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Alfie Banks, relationship director at HSBC UK said: \u201cWe are pleased to have supported Europa with financing for these high-quality logistics assets. This funding demonstrates our commitment to backing ambitious real estate investors in the UK logistics sector. We have developed a strong relationship with Europa and look forward to building on this in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Financing will be used against
