In addition, the rural industrial A land-use classification allows for retail activities of up to 400sq m in floor space to service the surrounding industrial businesses and tenancies. It also allows for truck stops and refuelling depots to be built.
Owner-occupier companies to have bought sites include a helicopter manufacturer, an earthworks business, two heavy machinery repairs and maintenance firms, a fuel supplier and a trucking venture. Gisborne-based property development investors have purchased nine lots for build and lease options.
The remaining 13 sections within Aerodrome Business Park are being marketed for sale by tender through Bayleys Gisborne, with tenders closing at 4pm on March 6.
They range in size from 3500sq m up to 1.02ha and feature in Bayleys' latest Total Property portfolio magazine.
Bayleys Gisborne salesperson Mike Florance says some are adjacent to one-another, and could be tendered for individually or in various configurations.
He says they will suit businesses and developers seeking bigger footprints, for the likes of logistics or freight forwarding warehousing.
"As a virtual blank canvas development opportunity, these parcels of land offer total flexibility from a design and build aspect, as well as affordability from their location on the periphery of Gisborne's current urban boundaries," Florance points out.
The business park is about 2km from Gisborne city centre, just across from the main entrance to the airport and close to to the S H 35.
"The developer is also open to considering build and lease options for businesses looking to reposition to Aerodrome Business Park. Zoning gives wide scope for new or existing businesses to relocate and purpose-build. Alternatively, as already identified by several purchasers, park sections could appeal to developers seeking a top new build location."
