The value of the transaction was not disclosed.
Joint managing director of Brackley, Stephen Pedrick-Moyle, said: “We are very excited about our first site acquisition in the North West and believe we have acquired the most high profile prime site of its size in the region.”
BPD has appointed Cushman & Wakefield and B8 Real Estate to market the site on their behalf.
Jonathan Thorne of B8 Real Estate said: “We are pleased to be promoting this very high profile site fronting the M62 and have been encouraged by the early interest shown by occupiers and hope to secure an occupier with a view to being on site in early 2017.
“We have decided to promote the site as Omega Point and will be launching a full marketing campaign along with progressing detailed discussions with occupiers and their representatives in September.”
