Global logistics provider Mainfreight has

extended its relationship with Goodman,

committing to a long-term lease over a new

supersite facility to be built on Favona Road

in South Auckland.

Chief Executive Officer John Dakin said, “Mainfreight is

at the forefront of the growth in demand for logistics

and supply chain services globally. It’s need for a brand

new facility to service the growing demand in Auckland,

was the catalyst for the redevelopment of our Favona

property.”

The project is part of Goodman Property Trust’s

current $475 million development workbook.

Sustainable approach from demolition

to completion

At the Trust’s 6.1-hectare Favona property, work has

already commenced on turning this former tomato

growing and packing facility, into a high-quality

sustainable logistics hub.

The glasshouse structures previously on the site

have been disassembled and the site is being readied

for construction.

GMT’s commitment to sustainable development

ensures that all suitable building materials are

repurposed or recycled through the redevelopment

process, minimising the volume of waste going to

landfill.

John Dakin said, “While the demolition of this facility

has provided some unique challenges an impressive

90% of building material, over 2,500 tonnes was

recycled.”

The deconstruction of the 40,000 sqm glasshouses

included the sorting and transport of all aluminium

and steel framing, glass panels and concrete to

resource recovery operators.

The 6-metre-high structure required scissor lifts to

facilitate manual disassembly, with over 500 tonnes

of metal and 400 tonnes of glass being recycled.

The concrete slab foundations were also broken up,

creating 1,300 tonnes of aggregate to be used as

basecourse in other building and construction projects.

John Dakin said, “In total there were over

260 truckloads of material recovered from the site.

Carefully managed and monitored by specialist

contractor Phoenix Metal Recyclers, the demolition

phase of this development has demonstrated what is

possible in resource-recovery and waste minimisation.”

With site preparation complete, construction of the

new 35,860 sqm warehouse and logistics facility is now

underway. Targeting a 5 Green Star Built rating the new

supersite will be Mainfreight’s largest New Zealand

logistics facility.

As part of the development, Mainfreight have

prioritised health and wellbeing amenities for its

employees. The property includes a dedicated café

and recreational area, together with end of trip facilities.

Following completion of the development (expected

to be May 2023) Mainfreight will be GMT’s second

largest customer, occupying over 55,000 sqm of

space across five facilities.

Developing long-term

partnerships

Mainfreight Supersite development

The growth of Auckland and demand for
e-commerce has seen fulfilment and

delivery service providers expanding their

operations in key locations across the city.

John Dakin said, “A growing digital economy, driven by

changing consumer behaviour, is contributing to a

rapid increase in parcel volumes across Auckland.

We’re increasing our investment in strategic locations

to accommodate customer demand for highly efficient

distribution space, close to these consumers.”

NZ Post is at the forefront of these structural changes,

developing its future delivery network to accommodate

this growth. A key element in this plan is a new

17,992 sqm parcel processing centre, GMT is

developing on Bush Road in Albany. The expected

completion date of the parcel processing centre is

June 2024, with construction to commence in 2023

following the expiry of existing leases.

John Dakin said, “GMT has acquired the 3.2-hectare

brownfield site and secured a development agreement

and 20-year lease with NZ Post. It’s an ideal location

for fulfilment and delivery service providers like

NZ Post.”

The North Shore property is close to large consumer

catchments in the north and west of the city and

offers easy access to the new motorway interchange

that will link SH1 with SH18.

The new design-build project follows an earlier

commitment from the customer, currently under

construction at the Trust’s Roma Road estate in

Mt Roskill.

Like all new Goodman development projects both

these new facilities are targeting a 5 Green Star Built

rating, using lower carbon construction methods.

They will also be carbon neutral, with all unavoidable

embodied emissions being offset.

Long term investment opportunities

In separate sale and leaseback transactions the Trust

has also acquired two additional properties for a

combined $1 16.5 million. They include;

1. Oji Fibre Solutions facility at 35 Hugo Johnston

Drive in Penrose

2. Sky Network Television Campus in Mt Wellington

John Dakin said,” Both these purchases complement

our existing portfolio and are consistent with our

strategy of investing in well-located brownfield sites,

suitable for future redevelopment.”

Pulp and paper supplier Oji has a long-term lease over

the 17,843 sqm facility that adjoins the Gate Industry

Park (an existing GMT property). Amalgamating the

two properties creates an expanded estate with a

combined site area of 21.2 hectares.

The Sky Network Television (SKT) Campus purchase

includes adjoining properties at 10-16 Panorama Road

and 34 Leonard Road with a total site area of

4.45 hectares. SKT is committing to a lease-back over

a proportion of the 17,251 sqm facility.

John Dakin, said, “We expect the remaining space

within the Sky Network Television Campus to lease

quickly but ultimately these sites will be amalgamated

and redeveloped into an urban logistics estate that

maximises the value of the central Auckland location.”

With committed gearing of just 25.8%, around the

middle of the Board’s preferred 20%-30% range and

new debt facilities providing additional liquidity, GMT

remains well placed to take advantage of new

investment and development opportunities.

Improving our climate rating score

Goodman’s sustainability focus has been reflected

in an improved climate rating score in CDP’s 2021

annual survey. The Trust achieved a B rating, up from

B- in 2020. This was the highest rating achieved by a

New Zealand organisation in 2021 with the Trust

sharing the top honour with several other leading

local companies.

submitted data with CDP evaluating over

13,000 organisations worldwide.

CDP and the rating process here.

EV CHARGER

ROLLOUT

Acknowledging the environmental and

economic benefits of electric vehicles,

EV chargers are now being installed in all new

GMT developments. An increasing number of

customers are also requesting that these be

retrofitted to existing facilities, as these

businesses convert to EVs.

To complement these dedicated customer

chargers, the Trust is also installing public

150kW DC fast chargers at Highbrook

Business Park in East Tāmaki and

M20 Business Park in Wiri.

The chargers were co-funded by ECCA and

are managed on GMT’s behalf by ChargeNet,

forming part of their nationwide EV charging

network. It complements other corporate

initiatives that include the full electrification of

Goodman’s fleet and subsidies for staff

purchasing private electric vehicles.

New debt funding for the future

GMT issued a new $200 million, six-year wholesale bond in December 2021

through its subsidiary, GMT Bond Issuer Limited.

At the time of issue Andy Eakin, Chief Financial Officer,

said “We’ve taken advantage of very strong demand

from local institutions to further diversify our debt

book. Achieved at a competitive margin, the new issue

adds further tenor to the Trust’s debt facilities.”

The fixed rate bonds pay an interest rate of 3.656%

per annum.

In March 2022 the Trust increased its main bank

facility, from $400 million to $570 million.

Andy Eakin said, “With a weighted average term to

expiry of almost five years across all its drawn debt,

and substantial liquidity following the bond issue and

bank financing, GMT is well placed to take advantage

of any new investment and development

opportunities.”
