At our Space Business Centres in Gloucester and Cheltenham we have found that young businesses often start off in the smallest space but then move into larger units as they become more successful and need more room. “The flexibility of the units – some have a mezzanine floor, some have electric roller shutters – means they suit a wide variety of businesses and a real community flourishes as they often do business with each other as well. Work is progressing really well at the site and the units are really starting to take shape now.
“The jobs that will be created in Warwick will help the local economy to thrive at a site already home to one of Warwickshire’s most well-known business parks.”
