Stoford submits plans for Worcester Six Business Park extension

Developer Stoford has submitted plans for an extension at Worcester Six Business Park on the southern side of the site.

Worcester Six Business Park is home to a number of major national and international companies including Kohler Mira, Spire Healthcare, Cornelius, Kimal, and Materials Solutions, which has one of Europe’s largest 3D printing facilities.

Work has also started on the county’s largest data centre for IONOS.

Stoford has already delivered £75m of investment to the site and now wants to put into place its original plans to extend the business park to the south, adjacent to Newtown Road, which will provide up to a further 680,000 sq ft of floorspace on 60.14 acres of land.

It has always been the intention to add the land into the business park and it is included in the South Worcestershire Development Plan, which was adopted in 2016 by councils in south Worcestershire.

Stoford held a public consultation on the proposed extension in March.

Gerard Ludlow, director at Stoford, said: “Worcester Six has quickly established itself as a game-changer development and having attracted a number of businesses to Worcester Six over the past three years, we are now in a strong position to develop the southern extension.”
