CBRE Leeds secures rare industrial letting in Knaresborough

Acting on behalf of a private investor, CBRE’s Leeds Industrial Agency team has secured the letting of a 16,533 sq ft modern hybrid warehouse/industrial unit on the prestigious St James Business Park in Knaresborough, to Movianto UK.

The unit was one of the only few available warehouses of this size and quality available within the wider Knaresborough and Harrogate area. Comprising approximately 16,533 sq ft, the detached modern unit benefits from a large secure yard and high quality office accommodation.

The property has been let to Movianto UK, part of US based Owens & Minor (O&M) who are headquartered in Richmond, Virginia. Movianto UK are part of a wider European network providing supply chain solutions for the healthcare industry.

Located on the established and popular St James Business Park, just 1.8 miles east of Knaresborough Town Centre and 4.8 miles from Harrogate, the detached hybrid industrial and office unit is situated within a prime location. Accessed directly off Grimbald Crag Close, the unit is easily accessible from Junction 47 of the A1 (M) giving it further connectivity to the UK motorway network.

Jacques Esterhuizen, Associate Director at CBRE Leeds, said:

“The amount of interest we had in this unit was testament to the demand for good quality, well located properties within the North Yorkshire market. We are very pleased to have secured Movianto for our client and I am sure they will thrive in this location.”

The new depot will go into full operation later this month following the completion of a programme of improvement works to the unit undertaken by Movianto.
