Bosses at a construction firm were so pleased with the quality
of one its building projects that it has decided to move in.
National maintenance and build experts Rok have relocated to a
new base at Pavilion House in Tournament Court, Warwick - a
building the company constructed itself under its previous guise of
Sol Construction.
The company, which was previously based just two miles away on
the Coventry Road, decided to relocate its 30-strong workforce to
the two-storey 3,063 sq ft building where it hopes to continue its
growth.
Hania Knox, business development executive at Rok, said: "The
layout of these new offices suits our needs much more than our
previous location - they also project a professional image to our
clients.
"It was not really possible for us to alter the internal set-up
at our old building so moving to these offices resolved all of our
issues.
"We are always looking to expand our workforce when
opportunities present themselves and we have the capacity to do
that here at Tournament Court."
Rok will specialise in smaller building schemes, maintenance and
service work in the area. The company will also be working closely
with local clients such as Warwickshire County Council, Warwick
District Council, University of Warwick and Coventry
University.
Two Leamington based property firms - Wareing & Company and
EHB Commercial - arranged the deal to move Rok to Tournament
Court
Paul Ludlow, of Tournament Fields developer Sackville
Developments Ltd, said: "It really is a homecoming for Rok, and
pleasing that we have been able to help attract a company of Rok's
stature to the site.
"It is a ringing endorsement of the quality of the development
at Tournament Court and we are sure they will be very happy
here."
In order to showcase its new home to its customers Rok hosted an
open day at the new headquarters, in Tournament Fields, which was
well attended by clients and neighbouring businesses.
Sackville has already created more than 85,000 sq ft of high
quality office accommodation at the 52 acre site and has consent
for three further headquarters totalling more than 70,000 sq
ft.
Tournament Fields is in an unrivalled location just off Junction
15 of the M40 and a short drive from Warwick town centre. The prime
business location is quickly establishing itself as one of the most
prestigious business parks in the region.
