Built-to-Suit for SMEs in Wallonia

What is a Built-to-Suit building?

A Built-to-Suit — turnkey — building is designed and constructed specifically for one occupier, from its process, volumes and technical requirements, rather than leased as-is in an existing speculative building. In practice that changes five things:

• Clear height matches your actual stacking height, not a market standard.
• Floor loading is sized for your machinery or racking — neither over-specified nor too light.
• Loading docks come in the right number, at the right height, with a yard depth that matches your vehicle rotation.
• Electrical capacity follows your process needs, including headroom for growth.
• Office and sanitary areas match your headcount, with no square metres paid for nothing.

In exchange, a Built-to-Suit project requires a longer commitment — a long-term lease or an acquisition at delivery — and a lead time that includes the planning permit.

What Nestin handles

The formats we develop

Standalone industrial buildings. The I38 Nivelles format: a new building divisible into flexible units with mezzanines, in concrete panel construction, designed for durability and resale to an investor.

Logistics warehouses and distribution centres. The Eco Logistics Park Fernelmont format: a cross-dock distribution centre designed around its operator’s process, developed with partner Kolmont for Colis Privé.

What is a Built-to-Suit (turnkey) building, and how does it differ from leasing an existing warehouse?

A Built-to-Suit (turnkey) building is designed and constructed specifically for one occupier, based on its process, volumes and technical requirements, rather than leased as-is in an existing speculative building. The occupier gets the clear height, loading docks, floor loading capacity, electrical power and office space it actually needs, under a long-term lease or an acquisition at delivery. Nestin runs the project end to end: land sourcing, planning permit, design, construction and delivery.

Which Belgian regions does Nestin operate in?

Nestin operates across all three Belgian regions: Wallonia (Fernelmont and Eco Logistics Park in the Province of Namur, I38 in Nivelles in Walloon Brabant), the Brussels-Capital Region (Lumen in the European Quarter, Botania on Boulevard Bischoffsheim, Firmin 77 in Jette, Roi 169 in Forest) and Flanders. Its registered office is at Rue du Mail 50, 1050 Ixelles.

Does Nestin also develop mixed office and residential projects?
