The park was founded on a landscape led masterplan and core design principles which responded to the site’s attributes and natural characteristics.
Covering over 550 acres it is situated in a location, bounded by the M1, M6 and M69 motorways; widely known as the “Golden Triangle” this part of the UK is the first choice for logistics due to its strategic position in the centre of the country.
Magna Park Lutterworth is widely acclaimed within the industry for setting new standards in terms of design; environmental management; sustainability; occupier efficiency and local job creation. The Magna Park concept is GLP’s blueprint for the development of successful large-scale logistics parks around the world, including our second UK based Magna Park logistics park at Milton Keynes.
