Northampton Commercial and industrial property consultants, Drake Commercial, have been appointed as sole agents for the county, for a huge new business hub expected to create a thousand jobs.

The £10m project has been launched near Junction 14 of the M1 at Newport Pagnell and will fill a huge gap for affordable office and industrial space for entrepreneurs and businesses that want space near the motorway network.

Said partner Tony Drake: "This is a huge development which will see a former storage warehouse and offices converted into a hi-tech business hub that will offer businessesvinstant premises without the hassle of long leases. 

"The buildings have been bought by the highly respected  business premises company, bucks-biz.com, who have a reputation for above average accommodation, no-hassle rents and looking after their tenants.  They are fraternal in their attitude to tenants and it shows in the stress-free atmosphere at their business centres."

"Millions of pounds are being ploughed into this new project to make it one of the finest business centres in Britain, with work underway just days after the company completed the sale earlier this month. We expect units in the main offices to be ready for occupation in the autumn."

The new centre - Interchange House - will feature eco-friendly systems throughout, super-fast broadband and the company's own telephone system for fast installation.

A first floor terrace and verandah will promote a "cafe society" feel and there will be separate entrances for industrial and business users, with business meeting and conference facilities off the new £500,000 reception area.

Said bucks-biz.com MD Joe Muscat: "We are developing space where entrepreneurs and existing businesses can thrive in a relaxed atmosphere, alongside a charming country town yet very near the motorway network."

"We had no hesitation in asking Drake Commercial to act for us within Northants as the partners have many years experience between them."
