Acting on behalf of the Industrial Property Investment Fund (IPIF), national commercial property consultancy, Lambert Smith Hampton, has let a 24,716 sq ft warehouse on Airport Executive Park in Luton to David Berryman Ltd.
David Berryman, a leading provider of processed fruit juices, was looking for new premises following a fire in their previous warehouse back in January. Whilst their office block was mostly unscathed, their factory and deep freeze warehouse were badly damaged.
Airport Executive Park, where their new facility is based, sits within the immediate confines of London Luton Airport and benefits from good access to Luton Parkway Railway Station, the M1 motorway and Luton town centre.
Dan Jackson, Associate Director – Industrial & Logistics, at Lambert Smith Hampton commented: “I am delighted that we have been able to help David Berryman find their new premises. Luton continues to prove itself as a cost effective location for occupiers and this latest transaction follows a number of other companies that have decided to relocate to Luton in recent months.”
David Berryman will also benefit from the upgrades to Junction 10a, which are seen as a key project for the wider airport expansion.
Rachel Collins, Managing Director, at David Berryman added: “After the devastating event of the fire, our main objective was ensuring that we could get our production site back up and running as quickly as possible. The site in Luton gives us great access to local logistics and means we can keep all of our staff who live locally, employed and happy. I am thrilled that we have been able to find such a great site and with all the new developments in the area it will be perfect for our business.”
