The international Enterprise Rent A Car company is to open an
office in Stratford-upon-Avon shortly - after a long hunt for
suitable premises.
The company, which has its regional office in Redditch, will
operate from Unit 8 at the Swan Trade Centre, Avenue Farm
Industrial Estate.
Chartered Surveyors and auctioneers Bigwood, acting for
landlords the Valad Property Group, arranged the deal, which is a
new 10-year full repairing lease at £22,000 pa.
The landlord has granted a rolling break clause after the first
anniversary of the lease.
Enterprise Rent A Car is not yet occupying the unit at Avenue
Farm - but fit out works are under way.
Enterprise spokesman Spencer King said: "We are hoping to be
fully operational in Stratford within six weeks and we are
delighted to take this opportunity to operate there.
"We have had an eye on Stratford for several years but for a
long time could not find the right premises, location and space to
accommodate our needs."
James Ironmonger for Bigwood said: "We were delighted in playing
a part in bringing a major international vehicle renting company to
the town, which of course has an enormous turnover of tourists
during the season."
