MLP Business
Park Schalke

At the end of August 2024, the City of Gelsenkirchen announced the resolution to approve the project-related development plan for the MLP Business Park Schalke. The project on the former Thyssen wire plant is thus continuing to progress according to plan.

On August 30^th, 2024, the City of Gelsenkirchen announced the approval of the project-related development plan for the new business park. This was agreed unanimously by the municipal council on July 4^th, 2024, together with the resolution on the implementation agreement. With an innovative, sustainable concept for the development of a multi-user business park, the developer and the City of Gelsenkirchen want to jointly create a new future for a traditional site in the Schalke-Nord district.

Focus on the needs of a broad user mix

With the project-related development plan, the MLP Group aims to make the largely derelict site of the old Thyssen wire plant usable again by attracting a balanced mix of industries. The property will primarily be let to companies for the production, processing, storage and distribution of various commercial goods as well as industrial and consumer goods. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in particular will be favoured. In the east of the business park, space will also be provided for local service and craft businesses. The new warehouses focus on both ecological aspects such as the efficient use of resources and sociological aspects such as the creation of a healthy, attractive workplace and environment. The development also supports the objectives of the Integrated Development Concept Schalke-Nord.

With the announcement of the project-related development plan and the signing of the implementation agreement, the project is progressing according to plan. This means that the MLP Group can now enter the next phase of project development and start building the Business Park Schalke once planning permission has been obtained.
