International hygiene company signs deal for new HQ

An international hygiene company is on the move to new headquarters in Ashby de la Zouch after a deal was sealed by Coventry-based commercial property specialists Bromwich Hardy.

Citron Hygiene has signed a five-year lease to make Ceva House its new UK HQ, taking more than 3,000 sq ft of space on the ground floor of the Grade A office development, which sits close to junction 13 of the M42.

The company, which provides bespoke managed washroom and hygiene services, has its international headquarters in Canada, and supplies and services more than 30,000 commercial premises across the UK.

Bromwich Hardy’s Michelle Mills negotiated the deal just 12 months after helping the company find six new sites across the UK covering more than 35,000 sq ft of space, to help it meet its strategic growth plans.

“We are delighted to have been able to find this excellent property for Citron and help play a further part in their continuing success,” said Mills.

“The offices are superbly equipped and well located and are ideal for Citron as the company continues to grow across the UK.”

The deal was tied in with negotiating a surrender of Citron’s current warehouse in Bardon, Leicestershire, from where it is relocating its finance and corporate development team.”

Robert Guice, CEO at Citron Hygiene, said: “In line with our rapid growth strategy and continued expansion, the move to a new headquarters seemed only a natural progression for the business.

“Our new home supports Citron’s ongoing recruitment drive with state-of-the-art facilities available for our staff and customers to reap the benefits as we continue to cement our position as a market leader in the washroom hygiene space.”

Avison Young acted for the landlord over the deal.
