When discussing the development of logistics or industrial facilities, the image that typically springs to mind is that of a large warehouse. For most of us, our experience of such facilities is generally limited to driving past them at high speed on an adjacent motorway. Few will ever set foot inside these vast structures, even though we increasingly depend on them for the delivery of nearly all types of consumer goods.

The Rhenus Campus, a one-million-square-foot logistics facility developed by Baytree in Nuneaton (on the M1/M6/M69 corridor), highlights what can be achieved when occupiers and their advisors collaborate with developers and investors. With a strong focus on environmental performance, workplace experience and social impact, it demonstrates their ability to be vital contributors to the social fabric of towns.
