About Mercia Park

Mercia Park is a ground-breaking development which has become an important economic asset for the local area and wider region, currently employing over 2,300 people on site.

Following extensive community engagement, IM Properties secured planning permission for the site in 2019. Construction began in 2020, with approximately 3,400 different employees involved across the two and half year development phase, with the first employment use of the site beginning in 2022. The site is now effectively completed providing 3.5 million sq ft of high-quality employment floorspace.

Today Mercia Park is home to JLR’s Global Logistics Centre (operated by Unipart) and a flagship facility for global transport and logistics company DSV.

The site has delivered high-quality buildings set within extensive and accessible green infrastructure including woodland, wetlands and wildflower meadows.

• 12 hectares of woodland
• Approximately 4km of amenity paths
• Over 40,000 trees planted on site

We also delivered new infrastructure including a new access roundabout on the B5493.

The partnership between IM Properties and DSV at Mercia Park has also provided social and environmental benefits beyond the site boundaries.

IM Properties delivered a construction-phase employment scheme which benefitted over 100 individuals and also supported over 80 local projects through a community fund which awarded grants totalling in excess of £350,000.

DSV is a key partner of the Mercia Park Employment and Skills partnership. It has also sponsored several local projects and sports clubs, and regularly engages with local schools.

Mercia Park demonstrates IMP’s commitment to high-quality development to meet the needs of future occupiers and their employees, with cutting edge buildings in attractive environments with benefits delivered to local communities.
