Kier Property acquired the six acres of land in Luton from Downton in May 2019 and developed the 120,000 sq ft. scheme. This is Kier Property's first industrial project in Luton and the entire scheme is expected to create approximately 252 jobs and is now 60% let.

Leigh Thomas, managing director for Kier Property commented: "These are great brands and we’re very proud to welcome them to our Trade City scheme. These additional occupiers join Ether Worldwide, who acquired three units and Grant and Stone who occupies unit five and proves that the online-supermarket-click trend, following COVID-19 is here to stay."

Kier Property currently has a £1.5bn pipeline and has developed more than six million sq ft in the industrial sector across 48 schemes in the UK. In addition to Luton (BREEAM Very Good), Kier has been selected by Bedfordshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust to design and construct £92.8m major new 16,700m2 clinical buildings at Luton & Dunstable (L&D) University Hospital.
