Posten Bring Norge has awarded Veidekke the contract to build the shell of their
new environmentally certified logistics center in Lyseparken, south of
Bergen. The turnkey contract is worth close to NOK 280 million excluding VAT.
"We are proud and pleased to have won the competition for the building shell and
external works for what will become Posten Bring's new main terminal for parcels
and freight in Western Norway. In recent years, Veidekke has built several
logistics centers for Posten Bring in other parts of the country, and we are
very grateful to have earned their trust this time in our own region," says Thor
Småbrekke, District Manager at Veidekke Bygg Bergen.
The logistics center will cover a total of 22,000 square meters, with 156
loading bays along the façade and a two-story office section of 2,200 square
meters included. The parcel handling capacity will be tripled compared to the
current terminals at Minde and Jekteviken. Climate and environmental
considerations were key criteria in the contractor selection process, and the
building will be environmentally certified according to the BREEAM-NOR standard
at the "Very Good" level.
"We are very pleased to have signed this contract with Veidekke, allowing us to
begin construction of our new logistics center in Lyseparken. This project is
crucial for fulfilling our societal mission of delivering mail, parcels, and
freight to and from Bergen and the surrounding areas. We have extensive
experience working with Veidekke on several of our recent facilities and are
confident they will once again deliver a high-quality building for Posten
Bring," says Edvard Nervik, Director of Real Estate at Posten Bring.
Construction work will begin immediately with completion planned in March 2027.
The contract is included in Veidekke's order book for Q3 2025.
