Business park completed at former colliery
Commercial Development Projects (CDP) has completed construction of the final phase of its South Kirkby Business Park Development.
It comprises units of 10,000 sq ft, 15,000 sq ft, 17,500 sq ft and 20,000 sq ft.
AWS, acting for CDP, and in-conjunction with Carter Towler, has already let all except the 17,500 sq ft property.
Nick Arundel, of AWS, said: “This is another great result in this location. To have let unit 12 to Intastop and units 10 and 11 to DBL Transport so shortly after completing the development, reflects the quality of this location.
“The speed at which these units have let reflects the strength in the industrial property sector with a strong demand from both manufacturing and distribution businesses.”
Hazel Cooper, of Carter Towler, said: “We are pleased that our joint agents, have secured these lettings so quickly after completion and we anticipate letting or selling the final unit shortly.
“The success of this development is testament to CDP’s vision and to the high quality of unit they provide.”
Simon Marshall, of CDP, added: “It is remarkable to think that this 64-acre site was previously a disused colliery and is now a thriving business park.
“We started developing here in 2014 and have seen the positive effects of our substantial investment and much needed new employment opportunities gathering momentum.
“It is incredibly rewarding to have played a part in the regeneration of the South Kirkby area.”
