Company's activity: Developer of sustainable logistics space Gazeley was founded in 1987 in the UK and has since developed more than 60 million sq ft (5.6 million m²) of sustainable distribution warehouses and industrial space for leading international companies and third-party logistics providers worldwide. Gazeley's vision is: 'to be a global provider of logistics space delivered in a sustainable way'. Gazeley has a range of logistics sites to offer to its customers across the UK, France, Belgium, Spain, Germany, Italy, China, Mexico and India and has plans to expand operations further into Eastern Europe and the Middle East. Gazeley first launched its sustainable design concept in 2002 and the company continues to assign considerable investment into sustainability and renewable technologies to ensure this best practice approach is fully embedded in all the developer's buildings. By 2010, the company pledges to make 35% of all its developments carbon positive while providing a 35% overall global reduction in carbon emissions. A suite of key environmental measures are provided to customers as standard reflecting Gazeley's cost effective procurement and long-term commitment to sustainable development. The ability to implement leading edge environmental technologies ranging from rain water harvesting and ETFE rooflights to biofuel plants across its developments provides customers with significant operational cost savings. In Germany we have developed more than 300.000 m² logistic space for customer such as Volkswagen AG, Zufall Logistics, UTi and others. More information on www.gazeley.com
