Two large warehouses for food and retail goods worth more than $250 million are to be built south of Auckland as supply chain strategies change to counter the pandemic.
Sorted Logistics and Cardinal Logistics are building the facilities on a 9.8ha site at Drury South Crossing.
Sorted Logistics director Kris Webster said that the "fast moving consumer goods" sector was changing from just-in-time to just-in-case, which was driving demand for storage and distribution facilities.
