Accountancy firm buys new offices
An accountancy firm has bought its own offices in Alcester in a £155,000 deal.
Three years after it was launched by partners Wayne McCormack and Zeta Hewings, Zoo Accounting has moved from renting office space to acquiring a permanent base to cater for its growing team, with two more staff due to be recruited before the end of the year.
Ben Truslove, joint managing director at John Truslove, oversaw the sale of the 1,320 sq ft offices at 3 Arrow Court, Arden Road, on Springfield Business Park in Alcester.
Mcormack said: “The new offices have enough space for around a dozen people, but we might need even more room in the next 18 months or two years.
“Things have gone far better than we could have hoped over the last three years.
“We had grown to six people at our previous offices and we just had no space.”
Truslove said: “It is always satisfying to help an ambitious young business find the right premises and be able to secure a sale on excellent terms for both parties. Zoo Accounting is continuing its growth and we look forward to helping the firm with its future property needs.
“Arrow Court is a modern courtyard scheme of offices beside the River Arrow providing high quality space for growing businesses. It is yet another example of the kind of premises available across this region to suit businesses at every stage in their development.”
Simon Cooke of MFG Solicitors advised Zoo Accounting.
The vendor’s solicitor was Paul Kettle of George Green in Cradley Heath.
