London Gateway Logistics Park approves second major tenant since becoming freeport

OASIS Group is the second firm to relocate to DP World’s port-centric logistics park at London Gateway since it became a freeport.

The park which covers 836,000 m² of land and is located 45 kilometres from central London continues to attract significant investment.

This month, the information management services provider OASIS Group took possession of a warehouse of over 10,000 m².

Significant financial advantages that come with locating at Thames Freeport include no stamp duty on commercial leases and land transactions, savings on employer national insurance contributions, a five year holiday on business rates and a regime of enhanced capital allowances, according to a statement.

“The new warehouse combines market-leading specification, the highest sustainability standards and 21m clear height to the eaves. In the next five years we expect many more businesses to become part of Thames Freeport and join the OASIS Group at London Gateway, where our logistics park is the biggest of its kind in Europe and is set to become home to a workforce of around 12,000 people,” stated Oliver Treneman, park development director at DP World in the United Kingdom.
