“ Roma Road will set a new quality benchmark for industrial
property in New Zealand. Sustainable design, focused
on the wellbeing of our customers, will create healthy,
productive workspaces that are unrivalled in our market.”
John Dakin
Roma Road Estate is being redeveloped into a 42,000 sqm inner city distribution hub. Building materials from the original facilities,
which date from the 1960’s, will be recycled and adaptively re-used during construction.
GMT’s Roma Road Estate
is being transformed into
a major urban-logistics
hub for Auckland
With changing consumer behaviour
driving the rapid growth in
e-commerce, the brownfield site in
Mt Roskill is being redeveloped to help
meet demand for strategically located
distribution space across the city.
John Dakin, Chief Executive Officer said, “We’re
creating a modern logistics hub that maximises the
site’s inner-city location. Close to consumers and
with direct access to Auckland’s motorway network,
it’s an excellent position for fulfilment businesses
focused on last mile delivery.”
A growing online marketplace is being reflected in
strong leasing demand for operationally efficient
and well-located distribution facilities.
John Dakin said “Facilities that offer customers
a competitive advantage are highly sought after.
With almost no vacancy and sustained demand for
fulfilment services, the urban-logistics segment of
the Auckland industrial market is growing rapidly.
It’s also where we are focusing our investment.”
The masterplan for Roma Road includes the
development of four separate warehouses,
providing over 42,000 sqm of high-quality
distribution space. Construction will be staged
to meet demand with the estate expected to have
a value well in excess of $200 million once fully
developed.
John Dakin said, “Targeting a Green Star rating of
at least five stars, the new buildings are expected
to feature the latest design innovations, including
sustainable building materials and new energy
efficient technologies.”
NZ Post will anchor the redevelopment, committing
to a new 17,700 sqm design-build property solution.
The project is a continuation of a successful
partnership between the two businesses, with the
customer already occupying five separate facilities
across the portfolio.
Greg Morris, Group Property and Procurement
Manager for New Zealand Post said “E-commerce
has created huge demand for NZ Post’s logistics
and delivery services. New Zealanders have
embraced the convenience and safety of online
shopping, making around $5.8 billion of online
purchases in 2020.”
Last year NZ Post delivered over 85 million parcels
and expectations are that these volumes will
continue to grow.
Greg Morris said, “A more automated network, that
includes our new site at Roma Road, is part of a
wider business strategy to accommodate the rapid
growth in parcel volumes.”

Preliminary advice indicates that GMT
will record an annual valuation uplift
of around $550 million, increasing the
Trust’s Auckland industrial portfolio
value to around $3.8 billion at
31 March 2021.
Strong demand from customers
seeking well located, urban logistics
space has helped maintain GMT’s
occupancy rate above the five year
average of 98%.
Around 12% of the portfolio has been
leased on new or revised terms since
1 April 2020. As a result, the weighted
average lease term is more than
five years.

Six projects adding almost 30,000 sqm
to the portfolio have been completed
year-to-date. With a total project cost
of almost $80 million they provide a
yield on cost of 6.4%.
Acquiring strategic sites around

Board changes
While operational performance has been
the focus of the last 12 months, positive
progress has also been made with the
Board renewal programme. First signalled
in 2019, the governance initiative will ensure
the tenure of independent directors is
aligned with recommended best practice.
After more than 10 years of valued service,
independent directors Peter Simmonds
and Susan Paterson are retiring, effective
31 December 2020 and 31 March 2021
respectively.
Laurissa Cooney and David Gibson, two
highly capable professional directors have
been appointed in recent months. The
refreshed Board maintains its majority of
independent directors and will continue to
provide strong direction to guide the next
phase of GMT’s growth.

Award winning properties
GMT’s latest development project at Savill Link received an excellence award
in the industrial category at the 2020 Property Council of New Zealand Awards.
The prestigious property industry event was held at
Spark Arena on 12 November 2020 and attracted
115 entries across 12 categories.
GMT’s award-winning project was the new
purpose-built facility for NCI Packaging. The
privately owned Australasian business is a key
supplier and product partner to many of the region’s
leading aerosol, food and paint brands.
Located on a high-profile site at Savill Link Industry
Park in Ōtāhuhu, the 14,206 sqm development was
designed to meet the customer’s manufacturing,
storage and distribution requirements with adjoining
office space for business administration.
Collaboration throughout the project – from design
concept through to construction and operation
ensured the high-quality facility was fit for purpose for
NCI while maintaining long term value for Goodman.
William Main, Development Director for Goodman
said, “We’re proud of the positive impact the project
has had on the customer’s business. High-quality,
bespoke workspaces have created operational
efficiencies and a superior work environment for
N CI staf f.”
The new building has improved workspace efficiency,
lifting productivity while enhancing the comfort and
well-being of its occupants. Design flexibility ensures
the building can be reconfigured for dual or even
multiple occupancy in the future if required.
The development had a total
project cost of $38.2 million
with NCI Packaging
committing to a 15-year
lease over the new facility.

Through industry connections and development projects many members of
the Goodman team have close links with Mark Taylor, a business unit manager
with Dempsy Wood Civil Limited.
Mark was the driving force behind that’s how
we row, a recent fundraising initiative that raised
$100,000 for the New Zealand Heart Foundation.
Despite living with physical disabilities associated
with a rare neurological disorder Mark set himself
the challenge of completing 100km on a rowing
machine in under eight hours. The aim of the
event was to raise awareness of heart disease
and provide financial support for research and
cardiologist training.
Other supporters joined Mark on the epic challenge
at the Auckland Rowing Club on 6 November 2020.
Goodman’s team included support crew and
rowers participating in a relay effort that completed
the 100km in just 6 hours and 22 minutes. With
donations, fundraising and Goodman Foundation
support the team contributed around $10,000 of
the $100,000 that was raised.
Supporting young athletes
Going the distance
Through its sponsorship of the Tania Dalton
Foundation Goodman is funding a scholarship for
young athletes whose circumstances limit their
sporting opportunities.
Set up to celebrate the legacy of an inspirational sportswoman the
organisation provides a mentoring and training programme that
helps award recipients achieve their potential, develop as people
and contribute positively to their communities.
Sharne Pupuke-Robati was one of the inaugural award recipients
in 2018. A promising basketballer, netballer and track and field
athlete Sharne has recently completed the three-year scholarship
programme. Her focus on basketball taking her to Utah State
University, where she has played in the US college competition,
and onto higher honours in our own national basketball league.
The scholarship class of 2021 has now been selected and
Goodman is delighted to be paired with young rugby player
Luisa Togotogorua from Takanini. Luisa was a member of
the Auckland Storm Farah Palmer cup team in 2020.
