Warrington defies commercial property gloom

WARRINGTON is defying the gloom around the UK commercial property sector with take-up of office space up 20% in 2008, according to a new report.

By the end of 2008, total office space take-up had increased by 20% from the 2007 level to reach more than 250,000 sq ft.

This coincided with a new high prime office rent achieved by MEPC Birchwood Park, where the high profile Bridgewater Place attracted relocations from Rolls Royce and UKAEA at just under £18.50 per sq ft.

'Best Business Park in the Region'

Warrington’s MEPC Birchwood Park was last night (4th June 2009) named Commercial Developer of the Year at the Insider Property Awards, and acknowledged as 'the best business park in the region'.

Judges praised managing director and 2008 Warrington Business Person of the Year, Jonathan Walsh, and his team for “a great year, securing deals with impressive occupiers as well as adding to the park’s existing amenities”.

In 2008, MEPC Birchwood Park let 160,000 sq ft of space across over 50 deals, 66,887 sq ft of which was let in December, which proved to be one of the estate’s most successful months ever. During the year, new occupiers at the estate included Rolls-Royce, UKAEA, Halcrow and Vaultex UK.

In January, MEPC Birchwood Park became the first in the MEPC group and one of the first few estates in the country to feature a hotel, with the opening of an £8 million, 103 bedroom Ramada Encore.

MEPC Birchwood Park beat off competition for the Insider award, from Property Alliance Group and Argent.

Said Walsh at the ceremony at Manchester Central: "MEPC won Insider’s Property Deal of the Year award when it acquired Birchwood Park from UK AEA in 1998.

“Since then, the estate has gone from strength to strength, establishing itself as the north west’s leading out of town business estate, presenting stiff competition to Manchester and Liverpool.

“Insider’s Commercial Developer of the Year award is the latest in a long line of accolades that we have achieved.

“We are proud to have helped to put Warrington on the map.”

MEPC Birchwood Park’s Bridgewater Place was named regional winner of the British Council for Offices Commercial Workspace award. It then went on to secure for the estate the Property Executive North of England Office Award for Excellence. Bridgewater Place’s architects BDP won a gold award in the Roses Design Award commercial project category.
