The Solution

Cadence started working with OCS very early in the process to help them define their exact operational, spatial and locational requirements. Cadence then undertook a thorough search of the market to source a suitable site that would fit the requirement and that could be purchased economically. Through this work Cadence uncovered a 7ha property located 7km from the Port of Melbourne. Cadence then worked closely with OCS and our design and construct team to design the facility specific to OCS’ requirements and to work around the complexities of the subject site.

The Result

The pre-lease transaction saw Cadence design and construct the sizeable facility, with OCS entering into a 15 year initial lease term on completion.

The 7ha site included a purpose-built 50,000sqm concrete hardstand capable of storing 8,500 shipping containers, as well as a container wash bay and a warehouse, office and workshop. This site in currently the sole Melbourne site for OCS.

As one of the largest contiguous concrete hardstands outside of the Port of Melbourne, the facility will provide COSCO a Melbourne base for the next 15 years as it continues to grow its local operations.
