BUSY YEAR FOR LOCAL INDUSTRIAL ESTATE

Pooks Commercial Property Consultants of Shrewsbury report a busy year at Atcham Industrial Estate, near Shrewsbury, with a number of successful introductions concluded by the agents.

Pooks have arranged six lettings already this year to the Environment Agency, W R Refrigeration, Haynes Tigges, Cogence UK, AAD Logistics and KDS Solutions.  The deals have a combined total floor area of about 6,100 sq m (65,000 sq ft) and has added about £235,000 to the annual rent roll.

Tenants have been attracted by the high quality modern buildings and the pleasant working environment offered on the 18 acre Estate.  Businesses have also been impressed with the 24 hour on-site security. The site is geographically well located, with excellent access to the M54, A5 and A449 road networks.  The attractive rents and the landlord’s flexible leasing policy have also influenced tenants wishing to relocate or start up new businesses.

Steven Evans of Pooks, who arranged these lettings, commented “We are pleased to have secured these tenants on behalf of the landlord, Hereford Storage Ltd, as the site continues to attract high quality tenants such as the Environment Agency and new start ups alike.  There are currently four units available with sizes from 235 sq m (2,500 sq ft) to 1,860 sq m (20,000 sq ft) and rents from £10,000 pax to £68,000 pax.  Our client has just completed a new 1,209 sq m (13,000 sq ft) unit with 7m eaves height and the asking rent is £52,000 per annum exclusive.
