Lineage, an international warehousing and logistics management company and an industrial real estate investment trust (REIT) owned by Bay Grove, LLC, has officially opened a new next-generation cold-storage facility in Tauranga, New Zealand. It now has 25 facilities across the country, stretching from Auckland to Dunedin.
“We’re very proud to grow our network to meet the needs of our customers in this market,” stated Brooke Miller, president of Lineage Asia Pacific operations. “With over 3 million cubic feet of space, and more than 16,000 pallet positions, the Tauriko facility is a significant expansion of our operations In New Zealand.”
Guy Moniz, Lineage’s regional vice president for New Zealand, pointed out that the access to the Port of Tauranga was one of the many advantages of building the world-class facility, located at 15 Anianiku Place in Tauriko.
“With our new facility less than 20 kilometers from one of the country’s largest ports, we are well-positioned to continue delivering excellence in supply chain solutions and serve our customers in the region,” he said. “This strategic expansion further strengthens Lineage’s offering to our customers across the country, providing exporters with access to a leading global network.”
The warehouse is equipped with a rainwater harvesting system for refrigeration condensing, has rapid doors on all chambers to minimize temperature fluctuations, and features an 890kW solar array for power generation.
