GMT announced a package

of new developments in

September 2022 that included

significant pre-commitments

from existing customers

Mainfreight and Cotton On,

together with two smaller

build-to-lease projects.

The four new projects have a combined

net lettable area of almost 50,000 sqm

and a total project cost of $221.4 million.

John Dakin, Chief Executive Officer said,

“Sustained customer demand is being

reflected in high occupancy levels,

accelerating rental growth and

a heightened level of development

activity for the Trust.”

The new package adds to the current

development workbook, with a total

of $635.7 million of projects now

underway, driven by a constrained leasing

market and growing digital economy.

John Dakin said, “The pipeline of new

projects will add almost 150,000 sqm of

warehouse and logistics space to the

portfolio, over the next few years. Around

93% pre-committed, and with an average

lease term of over 13.5 years, these new

facilities are expected to generate

$31.4 million in annual rental income

once complete.”

The largest of the four latest

developments is a 23,300 sqm twin

warehouse facility for Mainfreight at Savill

Link in Otahuhu. It complements a

supersite facility also underway for the

global logistics provider at the Trust’s

Favona Road Estate in Mangere.

Business growth has also led to additional

space requirements for fashion retailer,

Cotton On. The customer is more than

doubling its footprint within the portfolio

with a new 17,300 sqm design-build

solution at Roma Road Estate in

Mt Roskill.

To help meet current and future demand

two build-to-lease warehouses (totaling

8,738 sqm) are also being developed at

Roma Road.

John Dakin said, “Anchored by a parcel

processing facility for NZ Post, these

latest projects will complete the

redevelopment of the Mt Roskill estate.

The regeneration of the brownfield site

into a highly sustainable, distribution-hub

maximises the value of the inner-city

location and its proximity to large

consumer catchments.”

An increasingly active approach to mitigating

climate change impacts and improving

wellbeing is driving customers to seek out

more energy efficient and sustainable

property solutions.

Infill locations, close to consumers and

transport infrastructure, are also being

preferred for the competitive advantage they

offer with faster delivery and the potential for

lower transport emissions

John Dakin said, “To accommodate this

demand, and to minimise our own

environmental impacts, we are targeting

a 5 Green Star Built rating for all new

developments. We are reducing the

embodied carbon within these projects

and offsetting any unavoidable emissions.

The approach complements our

business operations which are Toitū

carbonzero certified.”

A range of building upgrade

programmes are lifting the

environmental performance of

properties within the portfolio.

Tom Slade, Head of Environmental

Sustainability said, “We are investing $25

million over the next three years to improve

the quality and energy efficiency of our

existing properties.”

Technology is moving rapidly and despite

an average building age of just over 10 years

across the core investment portfolio, there

are new systems and upgrades that can be

retrofitted to improve a buildings

environmental performance.

The new investment initiatives complement

the Trust’s development programme, which

is providing customers with highly

sustainable, Green Star rated facilities.

Current building upgrade projects include:

+ Electrical submetering

+ LED lighting upgrades

+ EV charging facilities

+ Rooftop solar installations

+ Rainwater harvesting

+ HVAC system upgrades

Tom Slade said, “With a greater awareness

around climate change and wellbeing, we

are partnering with our customers to deliver

more sustainable property solutions.”

Many of these businesses are sharing utility

data, allowing the operating performance of

their buildings to be critically assessed and

benchmarked against similar properties

within the portfolio.

Electrical submetering and water

consumption data provides valuable

insights into how a building is performing

and where improvements can be made.

Tom Slade said “It is often just small

changes like LED lighting and new water

saving technologies that can have a big

impact on the environmental performance

of a building.

Heavy energy users will almost certainly

benefit from alternatives such as rooftop

solar energy systems.”

Goodman is also adding EV chargers for

customers and replacing R22 refrigerants in

building HVAC systems with low emission

factor alternatives.

Tom Slade said, “Protecting and improving

the natural environment around our estates

is another objective of our sustainability

programme.”

Urban ngahere have been planted at

Highbrook Business Park and Roma Road

Estate recently, with beehive initiatives also

planned to improve the biodiversity and

resilience of the landscapes within the

portfolio.

The aggregation of these small but positive

changes improves the overall quality of our

estates, contributing to better

environmental, social and economic

outcomes for everyone.

wellbeing, we are partnering with our customers to deliver

MANAGING OUR
CARBON FOOTPRINT

A detailed Emissions Management and Reduction Plan is helping

Goodman transition to a low carbon, more sustainable future.

Monitoring and minimising greenhouse gas (GHG)

emissions is an essential part of a wider sustainability

strategy that is focused on mitigating the impacts of

climate change.

Carbonzero certification from Toitū provides

independent verification that emissions are being

measured in accordance with international standards

and offset with high quality carbon credits.

The table below summarises the business’ emissions

inventory or carbon footprint. Measured in tCO

2

e

(carbon dioxide equivalent tonnes), the target is to

reduce absolute emissions by 19.4% within five years

(from the 2020 base year).

Scope 1 emissions are predominantly fossil fuel and

refrigerant related, Scope 2 emissions relate to the

generation of electricity consumed, whereas Scope 3

emissions are more indirect and include travel,

deliveries, waste etc.

A 50% reduction in absolute emissions in 2022

is already significantly ahead of the 2025 target.

The strong progress not only reflects positively on the

effectiveness of emissions reduction initiatives but also

the impact of COVID-19 restrictions, reducing energy

consumption and travel requirements.

Scope 3 emissions from construction related activities

and materials have been added to the 2022 inventory,

below the line. A commitment to carbon neutral

development means the embodied carbon within

completed development projects is now being reported

and offset.

2022 Annual Meeting

This year’s Annual Meeting of

Unitholders was held at Alexandra

Park in Epsom, on 8 July 2022.

Inclement weather and rising COVID-19

rates impacted attendance at the physical

meeting, with a lower investor turnout than

in previous years.

A hybrid format allowed those unable to

attend in person to participate through a live

webcast. The functionality and convenience

of the online meeting, which includes the

ability to vote and ask questions, is now

attracting a greater proportion of Unitholders.

The formal business of the meeting

included the reappointment of Keith Smith

as an independent director of the Manager.

Keith advised that he intended to retire within

the next 12 months once the transition to a

new Chief Executive Officer was complete,

and a replacement Director appointed.

Voting participation was high with over 64%

of the total units on issue being cast. Keith

was reappointed, with the resolution

receiving almost 87% approval.

KiwiHarvest Celebrates

10 Years

Addressing the combined issues

of food insecurity and food waste,

KiwiHarvest has been supporting

local communities for 10 years.

A founding partner of KiwiHarvest since it

extended its operations to Auckland in

2015, the Goodman Foundation is proud to

be a long-term supporter of New Zealand’s

leading food rescue organisation.

With its main distribution centre located at

Highbrook Business Park and local

services operating in four other regions,

KiwiHarvest collects nutritious but

perishable food destined for landfill and

redistributes it to those in need through

foodbanks and other community agencies.

In a year when food insecurity was

exacerbated by the impacts of the

pandemic, KiwiHarvest has managed

through the logistical challenges of Alert

Level and Traffic Light restrictions,

redistributing 1.8 million kgs of food over

the last 12 months.

Equivalent to over 5.1 million meals it

included surplus produce, protein,

mislabelled goods and grocery items

approaching expiry.

The sheer volume of food rescued and

redistributed over the last 10 years reflects

the determination and drive of the

KiwiHarvest team and its commitment to

feeding the most vulnerable in our

communities.

By collecting the good food destined for

landfill and redirecting it to those in need

KiwiHarvest is contributing to better social

and environmental outcomes for everyone.

“We’re proud to be

associated with a social

venture that is having

such a positive impact in

our communities.”
