Completed industrial scheme expected to create 500 jobs
Mirastar’s £60m industrial development at Sheffield Catalyst, which is expected bring around 500 jobs to the area, is now completed.
The scheme, which comprises five units totalling 285,000 sq ft, is already 50% pre-let.
Agents Knight Frank, GV & Co and M1 are marketing the remaining three units of 22,448 sq ft, 28,309 sq ft and 91,923 sq ft which are immediately available and suitable for warehouse and distribution, general industrial and manufacturing.
Rebecca Schofield, partner and head of the Yorkshire industrial team at Knight Frank, said: “This scheme is at the heart of the region’s distribution and manufacturing location and sits in a prime central UK position allowing potential occupiers access nationwide.
“Potential occupiers should be attracted by the nearby demographics for employees and potential customers. More than 477,000 people are within five mile radius of site and 65 per cent of the UK population can be reached within 4.5 hours.”
Henry Watson, associate at M1 Agency, said: “We are seeing specification and location be paramount to occupier requirements in the current market and Catalyst benefits from best in class building specification and unrivalled location, just off J33.”
Earlier this year, surfaces specialist Cosentino and UK commercial supplier JLA Group became the first two tenants to sign up to South Yorkshire’s newest industrial scheme. Cosentino took 33,608 sq ft unit while JLA Group expanded into 109,166 sq ft.
Daniel Walker, from GV & Co, added: “The units at Catalyst, Sheffield Business Park have been constructed to a high specification and the quality of the interest we have received to date is testament to that.”
