Thanks to great road and public transport links, LOC8 is well placed to get people in and goods out. Two train stations lay within less than 10 minutes journey by bicycle, while a regular bus service connects the site with Maidstone, Ashford and the outlying areas.
Kent’s population grew by 15.3% between 2004 and 2019, far above the averages set by the South East (12.9%) and England (12.1%). The county’s population is forecast to increase by a further 14.9% by 2036.
The Kent economy is well geared towards logistics and manufacturing operations, with a significant proportion of the local population employed in connected trades.
