42,000 sq ft industrial project to generate 100 jobs

A Warwickshire property development company has finished its first project, Sucham Park, a 42,200 sq ft industrial scheme in Southam.

Located within Holywell Business Park, part of the established Kineton Road Industrial Estate in Southam, the project was constructed by Warwick-based MCS Group.

The completed development is anticipated to generate 100 jobs, with RMF Installation and Services already occupying a 15,000 sq ft unit as the first tenant.

WPDG, in collaboration with Bromwich Hardy, is tasked with leasing the remaining space, with considerable interest from potential tenants and further announcements expected soon

Rob Andrews, head of development at WPDG, said: “This is a major milestone for WPDG and we’re excited to be celebrating the completion of our first direct delivery project. In a little over a year we have transformed a vacant development site into an industrial scheme which is providing high-quality space for businesses of a range of sizes.

“It has been fantastic to partner with MCS to deliver this scheme on time and on budget, working with MCS has allowed us to ensure that the scheme’s economic benefit has stayed in the region at every stage of the process. There is a need across Warwickshire for high-quality small unit space to help businesses to stay, grow and thrive in the region. Sucham Park provides that space while also strengthening the industrial offer in Southam.”

James Currie, of MCS Group, said: “We’re pleased to have been involved with this project for WPDG, as compared to the majority of our projects this is virtually on our doorstep. The build process ran well on site and has produced a really good quality end product.”
