Logivest brokers three logistics halls in Ludwigsau to GEODIS

In Ludwigsau, Hesse, near Bad Hersfeld, Logivest has brokered three logistics halls with a total area of over 30,000 square meters to GEODIS CL Germany GmbH. The spaces are part of the DHL complex and will be subleased long-term by the parcel service provider.

(Munich/Ludwigsau) The property on “Im Fuldatal” features a cross-dock area of approximately 10,000 square meters with 32 loading docks. This is followed by two additional halls, each with around 10,000 square meters of storage space, as well as approximately 1,000 square meters of mezzanine space each, and a total of 18 loading docks.

From the new location, GEODIS will handle logistics for a large nationwide retailer. For the most efficient goods handling, the logistics service provider prioritized the cross-dock area, while the immediate proximity to DHL and the resulting synergies were also convincing.

In addition, the property is ideally located – directly on Federal Highway 27 and with very good access to the A 4 motorway. A bus stop near the building complex also ensures good accessibility by public transport – an important aspect for attracting new employees. GEODIS was able to commence operations at the new location as early as October.

Preferred location in the center of Germany

The region is particularly attractive for logistics due to its central location in Germany, as warehouses can be reached throughout the country within the legal driving times. “There is a lot of activity in the vicinity of Bad Hersfeld. Exciting projects are emerging that will advance the region further. For example, Garbe Industrial is currently developing a new logistics building in Ludwigsau, which we have exclusively on the market. But Pfenning Logistics is also currently building here for its own needs,” says Daniel Gerlach, Consultant Industrial and Logistics Letting at Logivest in Hanover and responsible advisor for the region.
