Five partners to move into new cargo zone at Brussels Airport

One year after the start of the redevelopment of Brucargo Central, an 83,500 m² area located in the heart of the Brussels Airport cargo zone, Nippon Express, Deny Cargo, Hazgo, EV Cargo and DSV will be moving into the new buildings by 2025.

"After the demolition of the old buildings, mostly unoccupied for several years and the work on the layout of the roads and construction, the first piles were laid, officially marking the start of construction," says an official release. A total of €70 million will be invested in the second line redevelopment of the area, and modernisation, innovation and sustainability will be the key elements of these new buildings.

Three new state-of-the-art warehouses with a consolidated warehouse area of 34,200 m² with adjacent offices as well as a staff car park, will be built by 2025, the release added.

"I am very pleased to have reached this important milestone in the redevelopment of Brucargo Central with the placement of the first piles and the announcement of the names of the five users," says Arnaud Feist, CEO, Brussels Airport Company. "The redevelopment of Brucargo Central started about a year ago. By redeveloping this important area, Brussels Airport is creating additional real estate capacity in terms of freight and logistics to meet market demand and further optimise the zone. We are delighted that DSV, Deny Cargo, Hazgo, EV Cargo and Nippon Express will occupy these future buildings. These are partners, some of whom are long-standing partners, of Brussels Airport who wish to further grow their activities and above all benefit from state-of-the-art infrastructure."
