Baylis Estates completes Yate’s newest business park with 100 per cent take-up

Yate’s newest business park, Armstrong Business Park, has been completed by Baylis Estates, the Bristol-based development company.

With the freehold sale of all six units on the park agreed ahead of practical completion, the new businesses will now begin to take occupation.

The new occupiers are SM Gauge (manufacture and repair of pressure gauges and instruments), UK Storage (self-storage company), Make by Design (designers, manufacturers of bespoke fitted furniture and joinery) and Paligap (wholesaler of bikes, parts and cycling accessories).

David Mace, Managing Director of Baylis Estates, comments, “Our latest £4 million development at Armstrong Business Park in Yate has been completed successfully. Such was the appetite for this well-located development, we have achieved 100 per cent take-up with the sale of the freeholds of all six units agreed to four purchasers ahead of completion.

“The demand for these units reflects the need for quality, sub 10,000 sq ft space, in a prime location that makes it ideal for growing businesses. Three of the new occupiers are relocating from their current sites in South Gloucestershire and Bristol, clearly demonstrating the strength of the location.”

The 30,000 sq ft Armstrong Business Park is located in the established commercial centre of Yate, within easy access to the M4 motorway network and at the gateway to Great Western Business Park.

David continues, “The Baylis Estates team would like to thank all the organisations involved in the successful completion of Armstrong Business Park - Noma Architects, TM Ventham, Waite Associates, LPC Trull and Corkish Construction, together with agents Alder King and Carter Jonas and solicitors Thrings.”

“This development follows on from us having recently completed the newly opened ice rink at The Venue, Cribbs Causeway together with the adjoining Jaguar Land Rover dealership and Costa Coffee Drive Thru’.”
