In September 2020, ARGAN launched, in
Augny (57), its most important logistics site, a multi-storey
building for a surface of 185,000 sq.m on the Frescaty
Plateau, a former airbase closed since the early 2010s. Four years
later, ARGAN is now pursuing a new development in this area to
deliver an Aut0nom®-labelled warehouse of
9,500 sq.m.
Located on the outskirts of Metz, at the heart
of an urban area of 240,000 inhabitants, with a direct
connection to the A31 French highway, Augny offers an ideal
location for the logistics businesses.
This new Premium warehouse will be operated by
4MURS as part of a 12-year lease, including nine years for a fixed
term.
With 650 employees and a portfolio of 106 stores
in France and Belgium, 4MURS is reshaping its positioning by
becoming a concept store that brings under one roof collections of
various offerings for home decoration, for kids and lifestyle
products.
The site of Augny will be dedicated to managing
the logistics flows for 7,000 SKUs sold by the company, close to
its headquarters located in the neighbouring city of Marly.
An exemplary site from an environmental
standpoint
This new warehouse will be Aut0nom®-labelled. With a
rooftop photovoltaic power station combined with energy-storing
batteries, this warehouse will generate its own green energy for
its self-consumption. Site’s heating will be delivered through
electric heat pumps and lighting through
smart LED devices with presence and luminance sensors. All this
equipment helps drastically reduce the site’s CO2
emissions (divided by a factor of 10 compared with a standard
warehouse). Remaining
emissions will be compensated by a reforestation plan led in
France. The site will thus be carbon neutral when operations
start.
Moreover, making a development on the military
brownfield of Frescaty results in the recycling of land that has
already been artificialized and thus limits the ecological impact
of the whole project.
The delivery of this first phase is expected for
the 4th quarter of 2024. Additionally, an extension
capacity of about 8,000 sq.m was arranged on this project’s
property-base.
