Broadheath Networkcentre in Altrincham is approaching full occupancy, as a recent deal with has just secured a 17,000ft2 unit. The development, spearheaded by Network Space Developments (NSD), has seemingly quickly become a magnet for businesses seeking prime location and quality workspace.
The latest addition to the industrial estate is a professional services company, marking the final lease of a self-contained unit at the Atlantic Street site. With this latest deal, Broadheath Networkcentre is now two-thirds occupied since it’s completion in February.
Simon Eaton, senior development manager at NSD, shared: “Attracting yet another high calibre occupier to Broadheath Networkcentre is testament to the quality and prime location the development provides. It also helps our occupiers meet their ESG aims, due to the high sustainability credentials of the workspace.”
Constructed by Bansco on behalf of NSD, the 206,000ft2 Broadheath Networkcentre offers 25 units, a mix of high-quality refurbished spaces and new builds. The development has achieved BREEAM ‘Very Good’ and EPC A ratings, with significant efforts made to enhance sustainability through recycling and reusing existing building materials.
The project, fast-tracked with a £23.25 million loan from Trafford Council, is poised to support around 400 new jobs. Additionally, with over 95% of the project budget invested in a supply chain within a 45-mile radius of the site, a substantial number of local training and employment opportunities were generated during the construction phase.
Will Kenyon at B8 and Jonathan Williams at Savills, the letting agents for Broadheath Networkcentre, highlighted the flurry of pre-lets secured prior to the recent deal. XPand Logistics, Maersk and Options Greathire are among the businesses already operating within the estate.
Kenyon remarked: “Following completion of all works at Broadheath Network Centre, it’s great to welcome another global occupier onto the estate. Interest has now ramped up across the smaller units with several under offer and due to go through shortly.”
