The first lease, totaling 540,000 square feet, is for space at ProLogis Park Wellingborough, a 1.15 million-square-foot distribution park located in England’s East Midlands area. Kuehne + Nagel plans to operate the facility on behalf of several clients including Whitbread Plc, the United Kingdom’s largest hotel and restaurant company. The second lease, totaling 370,000 square feet is at ProLogis Park Isle d’ Abeau (pictured), a 4.5 million-square-foot distribution park located in the city of Lyon, France. Kuehne + Nagel will operate the space as a multi-user site serving customers throughout southern France. A ProLogis spokesperson told CPN today that \u201cThe leases are long-term, triple net.\u201d The company declined to disclose the total investment. ProLogis Park Wellingborough is located in the East Midlands, a key U.K. distribution location. The park comprises three fully-occupied facilities and offers strategic access to several major highways. Other customers at the park include Monsoon Accessories and Homebase. ProLogis Park Isle d’ Abeau in France is located 10 minutes from Lyon international Airport, 20 minutes from central Lyon and 30 minutes from Grenoble.
