• FootLocker, a leading player in the world of athletic lifestyle and athleisure shoes and clothing, recently entered into a strategic and long-term lease agreement with Nabuurs Beheer for a large-scale European distribution center.
• The distribution center, located along the A73 on the Laarakker business park in Haps, is an impressive ‘build to suit’ project consisting of approximately 33,380 m² of warehouse, mezzanine, and office space.
• This modern distribution center, designed and constructed by the renowned constructor Heembouw, will be a model of sustainability with a focus on nature conservation. It will be delivered with the BREEAM Very Good label, with completion scheduled for August 2024.
• The site, owned by the Nabuurs family since the 1990s and always used for logistical purposes, is currently undergoing a transformation. All old buildings have been demolished, and the construction of the new distribution center has officially begun.
• The new distribution center will be connected to an existing distribution center of 13,400 m² through three passageways. The existing center was completed in 2020 and is still in use by Nabuurs Logistiek. This adjacent building will also be utilized by FootLocker.
• From this state-of-the-art distribution center, FootLocker will serve its European customers using a fully automated order picking system. This enables FootLocker to efficiently and rapidly distribute its products and meet the growing demand in the market.
