Ripon business park speculates on new unit

Its business park there is fully let, so because there is high demand for smaller industrial premises, the company is speculatively building a 4,000 square foot unit with dedicated concrete yard.

Work has now begun on site with completion scheduled for June 2021.

Jenna Strover, head of commercial delivery at Potter Space, said: “We are receiving a growing number of enquiries for units of all sizes but especially ones of this size which are perfect for smaller, growing businesses and start-ups who want to be close to the A1(M) and be well-placed for York and Harrogate.

“Recognising this demand and the needs of customers, not just in Ripon but across all our other business parks, we have developed a strategic expansion programme. We are planning to effectively utilise the land we have available on the 250-acre estate to build new accommodation, of differing sizes, to meet the market’s requirements.”
