Jobs are set to be created after the completion of a land deal which is set to bring a new drive-thru coffee outlet to Wellingborough
Decorum Estates has snapped up Parcel 12 at Vistry’s Station Island, Stanton Cross in the Northamptonshire town. This is Vistry’s first deal at Station Island and will see fast-growing chain Bewiched Coffee move onto the site next year.
The Decorum scheme will be Bewiched’s third drive-thru and its second in partnership with Decorum, which delivered the first on Moulton Park, Northampton last year.
A planning application for the new drive-thru at Station Island has been submitted, with Decorum set to hand over the new premises by mid-2023.
Chris Carlise, director at Decorum, said: ““We are delighted to have secured this strategic site at Station Island working closely with Lee Barrett and Chris Tompkins at Vistry. It is a pleasure to continue to work with Matt Fountain at Bewiched Coffee; a true regional success story.”
Nicholas Roberts of Drake & Partners advised Vistry on the deal. He said: “Decorum have an very established track record in this type of high quality development and bringing a growing, Northamptonshire based company like Bewiched Coffee to Station Island will be a real asset to the wider Stanton Cross development’’
Matt Fountain, Managing Director at Bewiched Coffee, said: “Wellingborough is where our business started and it is brilliant to be opening our second drive-thru unit there, having opened the UK & Europe’s first purpose-built drive thru coffee offer last year. This sits alongside our wider drive-thru strategy with five more in the pipeline. We are confident we can bring something new and better to drive-thru offers in Wellingborough.
“Station Island is an exciting mix of business, retail and food offers, obviously it is adjacent to the train station, but the wider development will offer so much more from a residential and leisure perspective.
“We worked with Chris and Decorum on our first drive-thru and he proved to be a great partner, willing to listen and adapt the project as needed.”
