Magnificent seven for St James Business Centre

Wire Regeneration’s thriving St James Business Centre in Warrington has confirmed seven new lettings.

The joint venture between Langtree and Warrington Borough Council has delivered a programme of improvements to the popular base for SMEs and the new occupiers span sectors as varied as education, finance, energy, recruitment, interior design and healthcare.

The deals represent around 3,000 sq ft at the 80,000 sq ft centre.

“The market remains robust and Warrington’s SMEs continue to show an appetite for growth and investment,” said Jayne Furnival, group property director at Langtree.

“All were looking for a well-managed, flexible space with the convenience of on-site parking and St James Business Centre meets their needs perfectly.

“Tenants can scale up easily here and our on-site facilities, such as extensive car parking, café, creche and break-out spaces, make it easier for them to attract staff,” she added.

Commenting on his firm’s move to St James, Ged O’Neill Bell, of Teachers Financial Planning, said: “We wanted a flexible lease in a place with a buzz that we can feed off.

“Being surrounded by other ambitious firms pushing hard to shake up their markets was a key consideration.

“St James Business Centre is the perfect home for us.”

The latest lettings, which also include Standing Space, I Am Productions Group, Greencrest Energy Solutions, In-house Vision Services, Pertemps Professional Recruitment and Excell Supply, follow a rolling programme of refurbishment at St James Business Centre, which has included new signage, enhanced car parking and refurbishments of individual office suites and communal areas.
