An Oxford Economics model has highlighted Prologis UK’s essential role in enabling trade, supporting employment and contributing to the country’s economic growth.
Each year, an estimated $89 billion worth of goods move through Prologis warehouses in the UK. The figure, drawn from an updated Oxford Economics model, reflects the scale of economic activity supported by Prologis — from e-commerce fulfilment and advanced manufacturing to food and retail distribution.
Prologis UK operations are estimated to support over 100,000 jobs, including both direct roles within warehouses and indirect employment across the wider economy.
This marks a 4% increase on 2022 estimates, highlighting the ongoing growth of the sector.
Alongside this, Prologis continues to invest in skills and opportunity through dedicated training and education programmes — including workplace upskilling and community-focused learning hubs.
The model also estimates that activity within Prologis UK warehouses contributes around $9.6 billion to UK GDP, alongside $2.8 billion in tax revenues. These figures reflect the wider value created by the companies operating within Prologis space — supporting sustainable economic growth and contributing to public finances.
