The fourth and final stage of Stockland’s Willawong Distribution Centre in Brisbane’s south is now available to lease, with demand expected to be strong.

Stage 4 of the development on Gooderham Road in Willawong will deliver approximately 46,000sq m of space across two separate buildings, allowing for up to five warehouse/office tenancies with tenancy options starting from 5,000sq m.

Features of the space includes up to 38 metre canopies for all-weather loading, ridge heights of 13.7 metres and springing height of 10 metres for optimal racking capacity.The development is targeting a 5 Star Green Star rating, under the Green Star Buildings v1 rating tool.

It allows for 24/7 internal operating hours, while external operations are permitted between 7am and 10pm.

Development approval for this fourth and final stage of the Willawong Distribution Centre is in place, with completion expected in late 2024.

The Willawong Distribution Centre estate comprises a prime 22ha greenfield site, suitable for up to 100,000sq m of high-volume warehousing space.

Knight Frank agents Mark Clifford and Lachlan Hateley, in conjunction with JLL agents Sam Stewart and Shaun Canniffe, are marketing the space for lease on behalf of Stockland.

Mr Clifford said there were exciting leasing opportunities in the final stage of the development, which had been very successful to date.

“Almost all of the space in the first three stages has been leased, with just one section remaining,” he said.

“In this final stage there are flexible options available, with space able to be tailored to the needs of individual businesses.

“The Willawong Distribution Centre provides a rare opportunity to lease a modern high-spec warehouse and office in Brisbane.

“There is a shortage of quality industrial space in the city, so we expect strong demand from tenants.” 

Mr Stewart from JLL said Willawong Distribution Centre was highly sought after by industrial users, with a major drawcard being its central location.

“The Willawong locality provides excellent connectivity to local and regional markets, with the estate being located midway between the Logan Motorway to the south and the Acacia Ridge Rail Marshalling Yards to the north,” he said.

“It has direct access to B-double approved routes to all major arterials.”

Stockland Executive General Manager, Logistics, Tony D’Addona said Willawong Distribution Centre is a quality logistics centre strategically located to meet demand for parcels, products, goods and services in the growing region.

“Willawong Distribution Centre is a prime example of how location is key in the logistics sector. It is centrally located within the Brisbane South Industrial Precinct, midway between the Logan Motorway to the south, and the Acacia Ridge intermodal freight terminal,” Mr D’Addona said. 

“This location has direct access to all major arterial roads, employment hubs, and key destinations like Brisbane Airport and the Port of Brisbane, meaning consumers receive their goods faster. 

“We want our logistics facilities to meet the needs of our customers now and into the future. The five flexible tenancies built in this final stage will start from 5,000 square metres and are easily modifiable – from the internal configuration to the number of doors we build as standard – so our customers can grow and adapt as their needs change,” Mr D’Addona added.
