The property, in suburban East Tamaki, would be converted from a warehouse and office complex to a 12,020sq m bulk retail outlet.

The redevelopment would include a trade timber yard and plant nursery.

Bunnings would lease the balance of the available warehouse for its Auckland distribution centre on the basis of an eight-year lease.

The distribution area has room for expansion in the longer term.

Total yearly rental income for the property was about $2.4m, Urbus told the sharemarket today.


Chief executive Murray Barclay said the redevelopment confirmed Urbus' intention to invest up to 10% of its portfolio into development opportunities.
