Plans for a third and final phase of development at Airfield Business Park in Market Harborough, Leicestershire, have been given the go-ahead.
Proposals for 11 additional business units and two drive-through food and drink units were approved by Leicestershire County Council’s development control and regulatory board at its most recent meeting last night. The new phase totals around seven acres.
Four businesses have already expressed their interest in occupying the units, including a Costa Coffee at one of the drive-through units and three of the commercial units. Bramble Foods, a fine foods manufacturer and distributor, has already committed to leasing a 67,000 sq ft unit on the new phase. It is an existing tenant on the park and is upsizing.
The scheme is owned and developed by the local council.
Lee Breckon, a councillor and cabinet member for corporate resources, said: “Airfield Park has been an incredibly successful development already and we’re excited to move onto our third and final phase. Based on the interest we’ve already had, we know more businesses are ready to make the move to Airfield Business Park and into Market Harborough, which will continue to bring benefits to the local economy and local jobs.”
APB Property Consultants and Eddisons are letting agents on the scheme.
