A leading UK schoolwear supplier has leased premises on Woodborough Road in Nottingham allowing the merger of two of its Nottingham branches.
Property agent Innes England has secured a deal with John Cheatle Schoolwear on a property offering 4,500 sq ft in a highly prominent position in the popular district of Mapperley.
John Cheatle provides uniforms and sportswear to approximately 500,000 pupils each year and has 77 outlets nationwide. The family-run business has streamlined its retail space by merging its substantial Maid Marian Way branch in the city with its smaller Arnold branch.
Charles Howard at John Cheatle said: “We found access to our previous location awkward for our customers and we wanted to get better value for our money. We needed premises that gave us enough space to house a larger business with easy access for our customers. I’m thrilled with the premises Innes England found for us as it ticks every box, in particular a large car park that makes it easier not only for our customers but also the day to day running of the business.”
The property is located fronting Woodborough Road on the corner of Porchester Road in Mapperley, Nottingham. The site is close to the main retail area of Mapperley which has a wide range or retail occupiers.
Ben Taylor at Innes England said: “This location is ideal for the business as it serves schools both in the city and to the north of Nottingham. The landlord invested substantially in providing modern open plan showroom premises, ideal for a retailer such as John Cheatle who needed highly visible premises and a large car park. It was great to work with two parties who were commercially minded to get the deal done quickly.”
The property, which was a former public house, is arranged over two storeys and has previously been converted into a retail space. The ground floor comprises of a showroom in an open plan layout and with access to the first floor that has a further six rooms for display purposes.
