It has followed up this deal by securing a five-year lease with Herons Pet World for a unit in Cranmer Road, at West Meadows Industrial Estate.

Darran Severn, from FHP, said that current demand for good quality industrial/warehouse accommodation in the city was “unprecedented”.

Speaking about the letting at Prime Industrial Park, he said: “It’s great to get another deal across the line at Prime Industrial Park and this will be followed by three more lettings with Units, 3, 9 and 10 also under offer.

“Due to the unprecedented demand at present, we have been able to increase rents by 50p per square foot.”
