As we look to the future, the construction of new warehousing and logistics projects is poised for substantial growth! With a more stable political climate and decreasing interest rates, developers are preparing to seize this opportunity for expansion. According to Glenigan’s latest forecast, we can expect a 9% annual increase in warehousing and logistics project starts through 2026. As online retail continues to thrive, the demand for modern distribution spaces is more critical than ever. At Glencar, we're committed to delivering sustainable, high-quality facilities that meet the needs of today’s dynamic market. With several exciting projects in the pipeline, and many in progress we are ready to shape the future of logistics!

News from Ealing Studios 📽️ Our Trainee Construction Manager Paidi Murphy recently hosted an 'Insight Day' in collaboration with Ingeus, providing a great opportunity for job seekers to dive into the world of construction. Participants got to explore various roles and skills needed in the industry through the hands-on site visit. Paidi led the way with a lively presentation and a tour, making sure everyone had the chance to ask questions and learn more about what it takes to succeed in construction. These events, organised by Ingeus, are all about creating pathways into the industry and addressing the skills shortages we face. We had a great group of eight individuals looking to kickstart their careers in construction, and we’re excited to see where this journey takes them! We'd like to thank Denise Southard, our Social Value Manager, our Ealing Studios site team and everyone else involved for making this day a success! Here’s to building futures together! 🙌 #ConstructionCareers #InsightDay #SkillsDevelopment #Ingeus #EalingStudios #Glencar #DoingItDifferently
