Agility, a leading global logistics provider, has chosen Auckland Airport as the location for its New Zealand head office.
The purpose-built 4,750-sqm facility is being developed by Auckland Airport and will house Agility’s New Zealand head office and warehouse.
“As a global logistics company, it is critical to be located in an area with good connectivity, security and accessible amenities and the Auckland Airport facility delivers on all of these,” says Mr. Mick Turnbull, CEO of Agility Australasia.
“The planning and investment that Auckland Airport is directing towards creating a world class business park was also a major attraction for us.”
Mark Thomson, Auckland Airport’s general manager of property, says, “The move by Agility Logistics to Auckland Airport is a wonderful endorsement of our real estate offering and Auckland Airport’s ability to tailor solutions to meet specific customer requirements”.
“This is a purpose-built facility for a world leader in supply chain management that employs over 20,000 employees worldwide. Agility will occupy a prominent site within The Landing Business Park which provides an outstanding environment for customers and staff,” added Mr. Thomson.
