Garness Jones intends to continue growing its operations across North Yorkshire with a move into new offices in York city centre.
It comes as parent company, Garness Group, has taken a new lease in Queens House, Micklegate.
It will become the North Yorkshire operational base for the commercial property business, and the new home of long-established licensing and hospitality property specialist Barry Crux & Company, which became part of the Garness Group in 2023 and has moved from its previous offices in Castlegate.
“This is a significant step for our business,” said managing director Dave Garness.
“Our work in York, and across North Yorkshire, has grown across each of our dedicated property businesses over the past few years, and that has accelerated over the past 12 months since bringing Barry Crux & Company into the Group.
“Garness Jones is securing an-ever increasing number of commercial instructions across North Yorkshire, and Barry Crux is a name with an established reputation for being the leading specialists in the region in the restaurant, hotel, licensed and hospitality property sectors.
“As a business Garness Jones has grown and thrived in East Yorkshire over the past three decades because we have always had locally-based teams who have vast experience and knowledge of the commercial property market.
“That accessibility to local, knowledgeable experts has helped us stand out from the competition, and given us an advantage in terms of being able to properly support and advise our clients
“This is something we believe is essential to providing the very best levels of service and advice to investors, property owners, landlords and tenants and it is why adding a dedicated office in York to our base in Hull was always part of the plan, for when the time was right.
“That time is now and it means we head into 2025 with great excitement and anticipation about further growing our commercial property businesses across Yorkshire.”
