A new build industrial unit at Commerce Park, Frome has been let as the region’s premier business development continues to expand.
The first phase of the 21-unit Jenson Court development on one of Somerset’s most popular business parks was recently completed.
The 2,500 sq ft Unit 6 was let to Tom Lam, MD of Safeflame (UK) Ltd in a deal brokered by property consultancy Myddelton & Major.
Quoting rent for the unit – ground floor 1,875 sq ft and first floor 625 sq ft – was £16,000 per annum with a new 10-year lease agreed.
Myddelton & Major Surveyor Gary Mead said: “Mr Lam was seeking new premises for Safeflame and I was delighted to help facilitate the move for this growing business.
“Safeflame – the result of a number of years’ research – is the development of a ‘safer and better brazing flame’ using hydrogen and oxygen from electrolysis of de-ionised water needing only water and electricity and no chemicals.”
“Jenson Court – the latest development at popular and growing Commerce Park is creating new jobs as the demand for high-quality industrial space regionally from new and expanding companies continues to grow.
“The strategically-located park offers high specification industrial/warehouse units and strong demand continues with three units now let, one under offer and just three remaining.”
