A sustainable grower is looking for space

VPK Packaging Group, through its Smart Packaging Solutions division, is a global leader in solid cardboard packaging for meat, vegetables and fish, among others. With a strong focus on sustainability and customization, the demand for additional storage capacity grew, specifically with sufficient loading docks and a strategic location to increase their logistical efficiency. The search for a suitable location required a partner who understood their needs and was able to translate them into a concrete solution.

March brings focus and insight

March's Senior Companion Guillaume Polfliet, together with VPK, focused on finding a location that met their requirements in terms of both building specifications and location. The Beaulieu site at Boffonstraat 3A in Wielsbeke quickly came into view: an industrial zone with warehouse spaces up to 55,000 m², equipped with sprinklers, loading docks, polished concrete floors and an enclosed area. The scalability and technical features made it an ideal match for VPK's expansion plans.

From intent to agreement

March supervised the entire process: from site visits to negotiations and contract closure. Thanks to Guillaume Polfliet's pragmatic approach, an agreement was quickly reached to rent 20,000 m² of warehouse space. The site not only offers the necessary loading docks and parking options, but is also in line with VPK's sustainability vision thanks to its efficient infrastructure and location in an industrial zone.

A future-proof collaboration

This successful transaction confirms March's role as a strategic real estate partner for companies with ambitious growth plans. By combining in-depth market knowledge with a customer-oriented approach, Guillaume Polfliet succeeded in offering VPK not just a building, but a forward-looking solution. The Beaulieu site in Wielsbeke thus forms the new logistical heart for VPK's sustainable packaging activities.
