SPECIAL FEATURE: IN PIPELINE
NGĀI TAHU
PROPERTY
INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENTS IN THE PIPELINE
The sites – totalling about
70 hectares – are in prime
locations in Rolleston
and Hornby. They have excellent
access to the country’s road and
rail backbone, and east-west transit
links into the Ōtautahi-Christchurch
urban area, Lyttleton Port,
Christchurch International Airport
and Te Tai Poutini-West Coast.
Ngāi Tahu Property chief
executive David Kennedy says
Te Waipounamu – the South
Island boasts a growing and
valuable range of industries from
manufacturing to agricultural
services and logistics.
Whether those firms target lucrative
export markets or operate in the
fast-turn-around world of ‘last-mile’
logistics, physical connectivity is
key.
“Online and omni-channel
retailing is one growth area we are
watching,” Kennedy says.
“Firms increasingly need the ability
to receive and rapidly distribute
products to diverse customers,
from retailers or direct to endconsumers.”
“Delivering successful solutions for
the industrial sector is in our DNA.
This is a return to a sector in which
Ngāi Tahu Property has a depth
of experience and knowledge,”
Kennedy says.
The first site is in the popular
Rolleston industrial area and
registration of interest is available
now. The other block, adjacent
to Hornby, should have titles by
mid-2021.
"WITH A FLEXIBLE
APPROACH TO BUILD, AND
STAGE ONE LAND AVAILABLE
FROM $165/SQM, THIS
DEVELOPMENT OFFERS REAL
CHOICE FOR BUSINESSES."
Ngāi Tahu Property has been
fielding enquiries since acquiring
the land. Development manager
Blair Brown is expecting a surge
of interest now that the first stage
planning has been finalised.
“We encourage people to come to
us early with their needs to secure
the right space for their business.”
Ngāi Tahu Property South Island
development general manager
Scott McCulloch says market
analysis indicated demand for highquality
industrial developments with
easy access to State Highway 1.
Potential owners and tenants
are responding well to Ngāi Tahu
Property’s willingness to provide
customisable development
Ngāi Tahu Property has new industrial developments in the pipeline having
bought two blocks of land adjacent to a key section of State Highway 1 on the
south-west of Ōtautahi-Christchurch.
