Sunrise Real Estate has announced the completion of its Amsterdam West Development Centre (AWDC) in the Netherlands. The state-of-the-art logistics hub, encompassing 19,660 square meters, is Sunrise’s first in-house development project in the country and boasts an array of sustainable features, positioning it as a standout in the region’s logistics market.

The AWDC is strategically located in a prime logistics park, providing seamless access to major transport hubs including Schiphol Airport, the Amsterdam Port, and the extensive motorway network that connects to Haarlem and beyond. Comprised of four units ranging from 3,785 to 7,085 square meters, the centre is already partially occupied, with furniture and interior design retailer Loods 5 and British activewear brand AYBL securing pre-let agreements for Units 1 and 2, respectively. Two additional units are still available, being marketed by Cushman & Wakefield and Colliers.

Sustainability is central to the design of AWDC, which has achieved a BREEAM Very Good rating. Key features include rooftop solar panels, green roofs, grey water recycling systems, EV charging stations, and LED lighting. In addition, Sunrise has implemented an innovative renewable energy and battery storage solution. With a 2MWp solar photovoltaic system, a 660 kW battery, and a small grid connection, AWDC will meet approximately 50% of its annual energy needs through renewable sources, catering to tenants’ growing demand for eco-friendly, energy-efficient infrastructure.

Matthew Stevens, Head of Development at Sunrise Real Estate, expressed enthusiasm about the project: “We are delighted to celebrate the construction completion of AWDC, which is our first major development delivered in-house in the Netherlands. This is a Class A asset… With its impressive environmental credentials and innovative renewable energy systems, we expect AWDC to attract the attention of occupiers on the hunt for futureproofed warehousing just 15 minutes from Amsterdam.”

The project was led by Heembouw as the general contractor, with project management by C2N.
