National commercial property consultancy Lambert Smith Hampton (LSH), Salloways' Burton-on-Trent and Derby offices and Savills, have been appointed joint letting agents on one of the biggest mixed use business parks the Midlands. 

Bretby Business Park, near Burton-on-Trent, is home to more than 70 businesses occupying approximately 370,000 sq ft of accommodation on a 33 acre site

On behalf of owners Henderson and specialist asset managers Centurion Properties, the joint agents are marketing three bespoke opportunities. 

These include Bretby 19 - an existing high bay warehouse, Bretby House, a two-storey suite of offices, and Bretby 50, a 3.5 acre undeveloped site offering opportunities for development as a single facility or three smaller units.

Bretby 19 is ready for immediate occupation and provides a high bay 19,665 sq ft industrial warehouse building with 10.5 metre eaves making it ideal for storage or warehouse operations.

Bretby House is a 14,400 sq ft office building which can be a single building or individual office suites from around 600 sq ft.

In addition the agents are marketing and seeking expressions of interest in two design and build schemes on a 3.5 acre site at the entrance to the business park, named Bretby 50 and Bretby Heights. Bretby 50 provides a single warehouse building of up to 53,000 sq ft with dock and level access loading, 10 metre eaves, a yard and car parking. Bretby Heights provides three smaller buildings ranging from 13,200 to 58,000 sq ft which can be tailored to suit individual occupier requirements.

Alex Hanna, Associate Director in LSH's Birmingham-based Industrial and Logistics Agency team said, "Bretby Business Park is easily accessible from the A50, A38, M1, M6 and M42. Birmingham, Nottingham, Burton-on-Trent and Derby are all within easy reach. Given the current lack of sites above 50,000 sq ft in the Midlands, we are expecting a lot of interest in these opportunities and are already talking to some occupiers who are finding there is limited product on the market to satisfy some of their requirements."  

Phil Randle, Managing Partner at Salloway, said, "We have a variety of opportunities available at Bretby which will meet a wide range of occupier requirements. With good public transport links and plenty of on-site parking this is a valuable alternative to other nearby office locations, allowing companies to enjoy an intensively managed and attractive landscaped environment."

An official launch on site attracted several key industrial and office agents in the region. Kate Chandler, surveyor at Savills, said, "The agents were highly impressed by the business park and the opportunities available. Several leads have been established as a result and we hope to hold more detailed negotiations with agents and occupiers over coming weeks."
