SPORTFIVE who are an international sports marketing business and leading football specialist in the UK have signed a 10 year deal with Orbit Developments to take 6,016 sq ft of space within the newly constructed commercial retail and office building – 40 Water Lane.
SPORTFIVE are a long term customer of Alderley Edge based commercial landlord Orbit Developments and are taking space for the third time within Orbits large commercial property portfolio.
The sports marketing company took 2,150 sq ft of office space at Poplar House in 2008. Then in 2011 their business expansion led them to move to brand new, Grade A offices at 50 Alderley Road, also in Wilmslow town centre. Further growth has led them to the move to 40 Water Lane which is Orbit's latest speculative development in Wilmslow providing a mix of retail and upper floor offices in the heart of the town.
SPORTFIVE is an international sports marketing business, and the leading sports rights marketing agency in UK football. They work with international rights holders and brands to deliver successful partnerships and multi-functioning marketing campaigns. As a market leader in the UK football industry for over three decades, SPORTFIVE lead the way in pitch side advertising holding exclusive contracts at 35 clubs across the Premier League and the Football League, in addition to successful long term partnerships with top clubs, leagues and national federations across Europe.
Tim Birt, Finance Director of SPORTFIVE commented: "We are delighted with our move to 40 Water Lane as it facilitates the continued growth of our business. The additional space has enabled us to create a modern and ambitious design for the benefit of all our employees. We have always looked to local landlord Orbit Developments to provide practical advice from the early days of the business right through to the size of business we are now."
Paul McLeman, Director of Orbit Developments commented: "We're pleased that SPORTFIVE are the first occupants to move to the newly developed 40 Water Lane. The building is in an unrivalled location and provides enough space for SPORTFIVE to grow further combined with Grade A office space which was high up on their wish list."
Paul continued: "We worked closely with SPORTFIVE and their fit out contractor ADT Workplace to deliver an outstanding working environment in a short time – just 8 weeks from exchange of contracts. We wish SPORTFIVE continued success for the future."
SPORTFIVE and Orbit Developments represented themselves throughout the process.
