“Thriving” North Yorkshire business park celebrates new deals and over 350 jobs
The Malton Enterprise Park in North Yorkshire is celebrating a raft of new deals, taking the number of jobs created in the park to over 350. Harrison Developments LLP, the owners and developers of the park, strategically located next to the A64, revealed today (January 6) that several new deals had been signed. New arrivals include high-end kitchen company Counter Interiors, the “renowned” Florians Bakery, fire and security specialists Derventio, Ryedale Garage Doors, Pelican Bus and Truck Parts and Rare Bird Gin, while existing occupiers Bella di Notte and The Chef’s Choice have moved into brand-new “hi-spec” new business units on the park.
In addition, a number of other bespoke units on the 180,000 sq ft site, ranging from 2,000 sq ft upwards, have been sold to private investors. In all, occupiers from a wide range of business sectors have taken a combined total of 120,000 sq ft at Malton’s premier employment park. Sean Harrison, managing director of Harrison Developments commented: “These new deals are a tremendous vindication of the substantial investment we have made in our park.
“More than 350 new and sustainable jobs have been created on site, which makes us very proud. The wide variety of successful businesses here is also an indication of the strength of the economy in the Ryedale area. 
“We are especially pleased that successful Yorkshire businesses such Bella di Notte and Dales The Chef’s Choice have moved into larger premises on our park, because they like the location and the ambience so much. We have been delighted to accommodate their needs, as they have outgrown their current buildings. “These are not the easiest of times, as we emerge from a global pandemic into a worrying cost of living crisis, but the current level of activity at our park gives us confidence for the future.”
Regarding the business park’s future, Sean continued: “We have a further 100,000 sq ft of quality employment land at the park, available on a design and build basis. We will build speculatively and will either sell or lease the new units. “These units will be single or two-storey commercial buildings which will be designed with maximum flexibility to allow a range of uses, including light industrial, offices, general industrial and retail, trade and warehousing.
Sizes range from 1,000 sq ft to 50,000 sq ft.”
Other major occupiers on site include Screwfix, JMP Packaging, Direct Imaging, Toolstation, the Pebblechild charity, Aquapoint, Be Amazing Arts, Puddleducks Children’s Nursery, Rhodium Car Valeting and No Limits Cycling.
