PestWest moves into Wakefield 41 Industrial Estate
The Yorkshire manufacturer has agreed a 10-year lease on its new 20,500 sq ft headquarters.
The detached building, Symphony House, is located within a mile of Junction 41 of the M1 motorway.
The landlord, The District Estates Ltd, was represented by Leeds property consultancy GV&Co. The tenant, PestWest, was advised by Avison Young.
Founded in Yorkshire in the 1980s, PestWest is a global manufacturer of technology to control flying insects. It has bases in Wakefield and Perth, Australia.
Daniel Walker, director of GV&Co, said: “High specification, modern and detached industrial units of around 20,000 sq ft and in close proximity to the M1 are highly sought after at the moment and we generated a significant amount of interest in this property.
“PestWest is a successful and longstanding local business, as well as being a market leader in its field, which makes this a superb result for our client.”
AY’s Oliver added: “Given the current supply/demand imbalance across the market, identifying and then securing good quality premises can be a challenge.
“We were, therefore, pleased to agree terms on this refurbished unit, located on the prime Wakefield 41 Industrial Estate, which should hopefully provide the client with warehousing space for many years to come.”
