A sizeable industrial site in the Northgate Business Park in Hamilton is available for purchase and will draw the attention of developers, investors, and owner-occupiers.
Spanning 2.34ha, the landholding at 131 Kohia Drive, Horotiu, sits on the northern edge of Hamilton and benefits from convenient access to key arterial routes. The property has 148m of road frontage and a separate 12m accessway.
The Northgate Business Park is a sprawling industrial estate measuring approximately 100ha and falls within the jurisdiction of the Waikato District Council.
The surrounding area features low vacancy rates among constructed properties, and the centre of Hamilton is only 14km away.

Colliers Hamilton Brokers Alan Pracy and Luke Verschaffelt have been exclusively appointed to market the property for sale via deadline private treaty closing at 3pm on Thursday 19 November, unless sold prior.
The strategic location of the landholding places it approximately 110km from both the Port of Tauranga, New Zealand’s largest port, and the Port of Auckland, effectively positioning it between these two maritime hubs.
Pracy, Director at Colliers Hamilton, says freehold industrial land is in short supply across Hamilton, with few development opportunities available.
“Developers or investors may seize the chance to acquire the land and oversee the construction of a new building at this site, while an owner-occupier could secure the space for their own requirements and futureproof their business with a premises of their own,” Pracy says.
“Northgate Business Park has far fewer covenants and design restrictions than most modern industrial subdivisions, making this a highly appealing location for a business to secure space and develop their presence.
“The Waikato District Council has shown support for actively fostering development and investment within its boundaries to drive economic growth in the area.”
The long-term economic fundamentals remain positive for Hamilton despite the economic volatility New Zealand has experienced over the past few years.
In the decade to March 2026, employment growth in Hamilton City averaged 2.3 per cent per annum compared with the national figure of 1.5 per cent, according to data from Infometrics.
GDP growth for the city has largely outpaced the New Zealand number for the past few years and the continued population growth points to an ongoing need for commercial and industrial services.
Hamilton continues to develop quickly, with population projections suggesting the area will expand further as more people move to the wider Waikato area seeking opportunities.
Verschaffelt, Commercial Sales and Leasing Broker at Colliers Hamilton, says the property offers buyers the chance to create a development that will enjoy strong levels of exposure in a high-growth area.
“The subject site is well positioned in the centre of New Zealand’s ‘Golden Triangle’, with the economic powerhouse of Auckland an hour away, while Tauranga is also readily accessible,” Verschaffelt says.
“Securing this landholding will allow a business to establish a foothold in a highly strategic location that has strong levels of connectivity to the motorway network and further transport infrastructure through the seaports in Auckland and Tauranga.
“The surrounding area has seen continued demand for industrial land, and we expect strong interest in this offering.”
