A new logistics development in the Black Country has been handed the green light by planning chiefs.
Warwickshire-based St Francis Group will build the new 113,000 sq ft warehouse development in Darlaston next to the M6.
The seven-acre scheme, off the A4038 Darlaston Road, is called 'Parallel 113' and is being built speculatively, with site clearance starting in January and the unit due to be ready for occupation in spring 2022.
It will be a grade A specification with 107,350 sq ft warehouse space and 5,650 sq ft of office accommodation, together with 101 car parking spaces and 98 HGV trailer parking spaces.
St Francis' development director Gareth Williams said: "This is a significant commitment to Walsall, the Black Country Enterprise Zone and to the greater Birmingham area.
"It shows our faith in the continued occupier story of increasing demand seen against dwindling stock and we expect to be delivering another high-quality scheme very soon."
Property agencies Savills and JLL have been jointly appointed to market the site.
