Equites Park Lords View – Premier Foods

Premier Foods, a leading fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) company in South Africa, has opened a new facility at Equites Property Funds’ Lords View industrial park. Situated on Allandale Road, with access to both Pretoria and M39, Lords View can accommodate development opportunities ranging from 5,000 to 45,000 square meters.

Resource-efficient design and technologies were incorporated into the warehouse for Premier Foods to conserve natural resources. External shading devices, LED lighting and solar photovoltaics were installed to reduce the warehouse’s energy use, while dual-flush water closets and water-efficient faucets were installed to reduce the warehouse’s water use. The resource efficiency of the warehouse is a manifestation of Premier Foods’ commitment to reduce the environmental impacts of its infrastructure.

Equites Property Fund, the developer of the industrial park, is committed to incorporating sustainable practices into its developments. This commitment extends beyond its developments’ buildings. At Lords View, parking is available for fuel-efficient vehicles and special provisions are available for cyclists.

Equites Park Lords View – Premier Foods has received EDGE Advanced certification from GBCI.
