Small to mid-box commercial property business, Potter Space, has welcomed established Yorkshire business, Turners Accident Repair Limited, to its Ripon business park. The business has agreed to a ten-year lease as it gears up for a period of growth.
A regional family business which began trading in Selby in 1969, Turners is a partner to many of the UK’s leading insurance companies and fleet operators, undertaking vehicle accident repairs. The business has additional premises in Doncaster, Leeds and Sheffield.
Thomas Turner, Managing Director at Turners Accident Repair Limited, said: “Expanding our business operations to service Harrogate and the surrounding areas is proof of our continued stability during a period of economic uncertainty.
“It was essential for us to find a location where our business could continue to grow in an environment that closely aligned to our values; which our new partnership with Potter Space more than achieves.
“The construction team went the extra mile to support us by taking the time to help us make valuable decisions to make the unit truly feel like a home for business.”
Chris Collins, Head of Asset Management at Potter Space, said: “We are investing in our parks to provide space for local businesses to grow.
“Welcoming Turners Accident Repairs Limited to our newest unit at Potter Space Ripon not only demonstrates that we are supporting the need for more space for growing businesses, but it will also be the start of a long-term partnership with a business that mirrors our core values.
“Excellent customer care is at the heart of our operations, and we look forward to helping Turners fully settle into their new home for business.”
The deal with involvement from GV&Co and Fox Lloyd Jones will see Turners join an existing community of diverse businesses that currently occupy Potter Space Ripon, including long established partnerships with AB Neo, I’Anson and Bowker Group.
Potter Space is also in the process of securing planning permission for three new units at the Ripon site which will introduce an additional 22,980 sq ft of industrial and logistics space to the Yorkshire market on completion.
