10th December 2025
Walker Morris has announced its Real Estate team has advised ARGO Real Estate, the UK-based real estate operating partner and investment manager, on its latest acquisition – Beckton Trade Park in East London.
The acquisition is part of ARGO Real Estate’s ambitious £500 million brown-to-green urban logistics strategy in partnership with Blue Coast Capital.
This multi-let industrial estate, originally built in the 1980s, comprises 14 units totalling approximately 100,000 sq ft and is home to well-known occupiers including Howdens, Screwfix and Rexel. Strategically located, Beckton Trade Park represents a prime opportunity to reposition a core London asset into a best-in-class sustainable accommodation with significant potential.
The acquisition marks another milestone for ARGO and Blue Coast Capital’s joint venture, which launched in March 2025 with the purchase of Tuscam Trading Estate in Camberley, Surrey, followed by Harp Trading Estate in Trafford Park, Manchester.
The platform aims to aggregate a £500 million portfolio of urban logistics assets, transforming them into modern, sustainable properties in economically strong and densely populated UK towns and cities.
Real Estate Partner Daniel Glowacz led the team on this transaction, with support from Sarah Cameron (Senior Associate), Stef Harris (Senior Associate), Siobhan Endeacott and Catherine Thompson (Director) .
