Heathrow is the UK’s largest and busiest airport. It provides access to 95% of the global economy with direct flights to 218 destinations.
In 2022, Heathrow handled more than 62 million international passengers and 1.4 million tonnes of air cargo. With a third runway, this could rise to an estimated 90 million passengers and 3 million tonnes per year.
Heathrow is widely recognised as the UK’s largest port by value, processing approximately 20% of all UK trade (2022: £203 billion of goods travelled through Heathrow). The economic ripple effect from Heathrow is extensive: the local area is home to several international businesses and a growing population of more than a million people living within a 20-minute drive.

We work closely with our clients and stakeholders, including Heathrow Airport Limited, to grow our range of modern logistics assets to meet demand, including significant demand for air cargo and parcel/e-commerce processing facilities.
