Wester Gourdie Industrial Estate (also known as West Gourdie, or Wester Gourdie Dundee) is one of Dundee’s most established and strategically located business hubs.


Positioned on the western edge of the city with direct access to the A90 Kingsway, Wester Gourdie Industrial Estate offers outstanding connectivity to Aberdeen, Perth, Edinburgh and Glasgow – making it a prime base for local enterprises, regional operators and national occupiers alike.

A Diverse and Established Business Community

Wester Gourdie Dundee is home to a broad mix of warehouse, manufacturing, trade counter, logistics and self-storage operators (Boxxs Self Storage is coming soon). The estate supports everything from smaller starter businesses to major industrial employers, creating a thriving and resilient commercial environment.

Well-known occupiers in and around the estate include UPS, Menzies Distribution, Scania, NCR, and Clark Commercials. Their presence highlights the estate’s strength in logistics, automotive, engineering and technology sectors.

Alongside these larger occupiers are numerous independent SMEs, trade specialists and growing regional businesses, giving Wester Gourdie Industrial Estate a balanced and dynamic occupier profile.

Flexible Space for Every Stage of Business

One of Wester Gourdie Dundee’s key advantages is its range of unit sizes and building types.

The estate accommodates:

  • Smaller industrial starter units from approximately 1,400 sq ft
  • Mid-sized trade and workshop spaces
  • Large warehouse and manufacturing facilities approaching 90,000 sq ft
  • Secure yard compounds with circulation space
  • Drive-up and container-based self-storage

Most units are steel portal frame construction with concrete floors, roller shutter loading doors, 3-phase power and dedicated yard space – ideal for industrial, storage and distribution uses.

This flexibility allows businesses to grow within the estate, moving from smaller units into larger premises without relocating elsewhere in Dundee.
