Closing the link between businesses and their customers
Stantec is supporting Infinium Logistics, a global logistics solutions business, to bring to market hyperlocal logistics hubs to central London locations. The aim is to roll out the concept across the United Kingdom.
The hyperlocal logistics hubs are multi-functional and situated in urban areas including ultra-low emission and clean air zones. They can offer cargo-bike parking and charging, e-bike and mobility charging, dark stores (e-fulfilment operations) and first/last mile exchange points. Each hub can be multi-user or client-specific and is designed to get companies closer to their customers, giving greater flexibility and making deliveries more sustainable. This is key, given the ever-increasing parcel volumes, faster delivery time expectations, and additional vehicle requirements the logistics industry faces. Our team supported Infinium Logistics through the planning process, helping to secure permission for several central London logistics hubs. This included locations within several under-utilised real estate facilities.
Unlocking the potential of these sites will address the ongoing issue of the lack of available land for logistics operations and helps achieve the policy aims of the Greater London Authority, Transport for London, and the London Boroughs.
