Te Utanganui
Central New Zealand Distribution Hub
Holmwoods have a knack for getting big, transformational projects, that shape the future of communities and industries, off the ground. The Te Utanganui Distribution Centre in Palmerston North is set to be one of the most significant infrastructure projects in the central North Island, and we are honoured to be charged with leading the programme into delivery mode.
Te Utanganui is poised to become a key logistics hub for the region, providing world-class distribution facilities that will support both local and national supply chains. The project will encompass extensive infrastructure delivery, including transportation networks, utilities, and modern warehouse facilities. As a central piece of the region’s future growth strategy, the project is expected to provide significant and long reaching economic benefits, create hundreds of jobs, and position Palmerston North as a vital node in New Zealand’s distribution network.
We are currently laying the groundwork for what will be a long-term, multi-phase endeavour. Heading up the Project Management Office for this landmark development, Holmwoods has been tasked with ensuring the project is funded, well-structured and ready for seamless execution as it progresses from planning to construction.
We have relied on our mixture of property development and Infrastructure expertise to ensure the plans are grounded in reality and sequenced appropriately to maximise early economic benefits.
Our involvement extends to engaging with key stakeholders, including government agencies, funders, and industry partners, to ensure that all elements of the project are aligned and supported.
We are working closely with local authorities and agencies to securing the necessary approvals and navigating the complex landscape of funding models, compliance, and policy considerations to ensure the project’s long-term viability.
With an eye on the future, we are committed to remaining actively involved in the Te Utanganui Distribution Centre project throughout its lifecycle, ensuring that the project continues to move forward with the highest standards of governance, efficiency, and innovation.
