A Leicestershire family business has taken up 13,000 sq ft of warehouse space in Melton Mowbray Commercial Park.
The space is comprised of two warehouses, Unit C and D of Melton Mowbray Commercial Park, which combine to a total 13,371 sq ft (10,929 sq ft and 2,442 sq ft respectively). The units have stood vacant since May 2024 due to the previous tenant’s liquidation.
In a quick turnaround of just five months, Innes England has managed to secure a local family-owned business, Digital Deadline, as new tenants of behalf of the landlord, Almcor.
Following the units being vacated, Almcor has made a series of refurbishments and renovations to the spaces including new kitchenettes and facilities, recarpeting, and repainting. The smaller 2,442 sq ft unit also comprises of three separated shuttered storage spaces with its own office space.
Nell Balfour-Farnon, surveyor at Innes England who managed the transaction, said: “This was a great deal to be involved in with all parties coming away satisfied. We were able to minimise our clients’ time between tenants, and have found a new home for a local family business to continue to grow and expand in a great new location.
“The quick turnaround of this deal shows the vibrancy of Leicestershire’s market at the moment, with plenty of opportunities and interest.”
Moving into the space is Digital Deadline, a family-owned Leicestershire-based business specialising in premier signage, displays and wall wraps. Digital Deadline has agreed to a five-year lease in which time it will be utilising the space for building signage as well as storage.
Mark Brooks, director at Digital Deadline, said: “This is a great new space that will help us continue to expand our operations.”
