Bring rents 26,000 square meters in Arlandastad, Stockholm from Bockasjö
Bockasjö has signed a long-term lease with Bring, which will rent 26,000 square meters of warehouse and logistics space in Bockasjö’s property in Arlandastad. The lease takes effect on August 1 this year.
Bring will carry out e-commerce logistics with IKEA in the building.
“Demand for logistics buildings is rising sharply. This is due in part to the expansion of e-commerce, but also to the phasing out of older buildings that are being replaced by new ones,” says Joakim Hedin, CEO of Bockasjö.
“We’re pleased about the new lease with Bring,” adds Joakim Hedin.
“With the powerful growth of e-commerce and increased demand from consumers for home deliveries, at Bring we need to be able to offer our customers opportunities to meet this demand in the best way possible. This space will give Bring a stronger foothold in the Stockholm area, as well as the chance for an even better offering,” says Tobias Åbonde, head of consumer deliveries at Bring Norden.
Bring provides daily logistics solutions to large and small companies in the Nordic region. Bring has over 3,000 employees in Sweden who are passionate about transports, planning, deliveries, warehousing and communications.
Bring is part of Posten Norge, one of the largest logistics and postal players in the Nordic region.
