A Harrogate-based developer has completed a £5.5 million new business park in Thrisk.

Marrtree Investments, which has offices at Cardale Park, unveiled the new park at Sowerby Gateway close to the A1(M) and A19.

The first phase was completed in February, and includes tenants such as Screwfix and Toolstation.

Now the second phase has finished with help from Harrogate construction group HACS with 10,000 sq ft of the new development already pre-let to wholesaler PJH Bathroom.

William Marshall, Marrtree Investments director, said:

“Following the success of the first phase of the development, we’re thrilled the entire scheme is now complete.
“The fact that we’ve already pre-let a third of this final phase is proof of the continued high demand for the kind of modern, high-quality employment space with which Marrtree has become synonymous over the years. 
“We have had a huge amount of interest in the remaining units and we’re confident further tenants will come forward over the next few months to fill them.”


Harrogate BID hopeful of success at national awards


Harrogate Business Improvement District is hoping for success at the National BID Awards in London next week.

The business organisation has entered two categories – place-management and special recognition. The winners will be announced at a ceremony at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on November 3.

Officials hope the BID’s Harrogate floral summer of celebration campaign will come up roses in the special recognition category, whilst its street ranger Chris Ashby – who helped save the life of a young man in Library Gardens — will secure the place-management title.

Matthew Chapman, Harrogate BID manager, said: 

“Since joining us back in January, our street ranger Chris has been a real asset. His work in helping to keep the town looking pristine is appreciated by businesses across the town centre. And this summer, whilst on his rounds, his swift actions and level headiness helped save the life of a young man.
“We are also hopeful the success already achieved by our Harrogate floral summer of celebration campaign, which was delivered by BID project manager Jo Caswell, will be replicated in the special recognition category.”
