Industrial space snapped up by mobility equipment supplier

FHP Property Consultants has announced its first deal of 2025, with over 40,000 sq ft of industrial space let to Medequip, a provider of community equipment services to local authorities and the NHS.
Completed on behalf of Legal & General, the long-term lease involves refurbished Grade A premises that recently underwent a net zero carbon upgrade.
The property is near Junction 28 of the M1 Motorway.
Tim Gilbertson, who concluded the deal on behalf of the landlord said: “What a lovely start to 2025 this is. This prime Grade A refurbished space at Junction 28 has created a lot of interest, and I am delighted to see that we have now completed the letting to a strong covenant as they expand and relocate to continue their position as the UK’s leading supplier of community equipment services to both the local authorities and the NHS.”
Andrew Firth, Medequip’s operations and commercial director said: “Medequip required a new distribution centre to consolidate our operations from existing sites in Alfreton and Derby which service our Derbyshire and Derby City Community Equipment Service contracts. The net zero carbon property will contribute to our decarbonisation aims as well as providing a more efficient and convenient centre for our local colleagues and customers.”
