DEVELOPMENT giant Peel Group has launched Aero Centre Yorkshire, a brand that encompasses the development opportunities available surrounding Robin Hood Airport Doncaster Sheffield Airport.
The 1,600-acre site is already made up of a wide range of office, warehousing and distribution unit opportunities and includes a 62-acre business park and 10 hectares of Enterprise Zone.
Robert Hough, chairman of Robin Hood Airport Doncaster Sheffield, said the move is part of Peel Group’s strategy to “maximise the potential of the whole airport site”.
In October, The Peel Group set out 150 major projects in its Northern Powerhouse strategy and Aero Centre Yorkshire now sits within this portfolio.
Steve Gill, managing director of Doncaster Sheffield Airport, said: “This positive announcement comes just weeks before the opening of the FARRRS Airport Link Road and only a few weeks since our major new carrier announcement with Flybe delivering connectivity to three European centres of trade and two major European hubs.
“Aero Centre Yorkshire will be an enviable central location with motorways, sea ports and airside access to one of the longest runways in the country. It offers a wide range of land and property opportunities for businesses of all types and sizes from across the globe.”
The approved development site already has planning consent for more than 2m sq ft of office, warehousing and distribution units and designated Enterprise Zone status.
