Sheffield approves major logistics hub, boosting industrial growth

Sheffield has approved a 271,750 sq ft logistics and industrial development near Junction 34 of the M1, expected to create up to 500 jobs. Developer Rula Developments will demolish an existing factory on Europa Way to make way for modern industrial space within the Advanced Manufacturing Innovation District (AMID).

The site could be developed as a single unit or split to meet market demand, with options for lease, sale, or forward funding. Completion is expected by Q1 2026. CPP and Colliers manage marketing, while The Harris Partnership, Adept Consulting Engineers, and RPP oversee design and planning.

Rula has delivered over 1.4 million sq ft of logistics space across the UK, with additional projects in Doncaster and Fulwood. The Sheffield scheme aims to attract key occupiers and strengthen the region’s role as a logistics and manufacturing hub.
