South Lincolnshire Food Enterprise Zone, Holbeach

The South Lincolnshire Food Enterprise Zone (FEZ) covers an area of circa 17 hectares (42 acres) of employment space and is split into two phases on the north western edge of Holbeach. There is also an allocation for circa 900 dwellings on an adjacent site.

Phase I comprises circa 5 hectares (14 acres) of serviced development plots which are being offered on a long leasehold basis.

The FEZ will provide high quality business space for new businesses and SME’s specifically in the agri-tech sector; with particular emphasis on creating a suitable environment for high tech businesses developing cutting edge technology and innovators. For example, food supply chain, productivity, food sustainability, logistics and packaging.

The site is ideally located in close proximity to the wider agrifood/logistics cluster in the district with existing strong supply chains further cementing the strengths of the scheme.

The University of Lincoln’s Food Centre of Excellence and Institute of Technology Buildings are already open on Phase I, and Lincolnshire County Council is nearing completion on the construction of the “Hub” building which will provide managed workspace for new and “spin off” companies and encourage collaboration and stimulate sharing of ideas and best practice.
