City agents help Vision Express expand in Nottingham

Optician giant Vision Express has expanded in Nottingham following a deal brokered by two city property agents.

Acting on behalf of a private landlord, Richard Sutton, director at NG Chartered Surveyors, has let the 30,523 sq ft Unit 2 Little Tennis Street, to Vision Express, which was represented by FHP’s Mark Tomlinson.

Suttom said: “We were pleased to be in the right place at the right time with the right product to make this deal happen. Our client was prepared to structure the terms to allow Vision Express to take quick occupation. The deal has been built on the classic approach of where there is a will there is a way.

“However, we still face a shortage of industrial stock in the market so lettings like this are a good indication that, irrespective of Brexit, firms still want to get things done.”

Mark Tomlinson of FHP said: “Vision Express are a long standing clients of ours, and it’s very pleasing to help them expand in Nottingham once again. Along with Richard at NG, we moved quickly to find source this option in Colwick as part of their on going property strategy. It’s great to have found this solution for our clients in what is an increasingly difficult market to acquire warehouse premises.”
