South West property developer Summerfield has agreed a new ten-year lease with major Somerset employer Greencore for a 25,000 sq. ft. facility at Isleport Business Park in Highbridge.
The agreement follows Greencore’s £1.2bn acquisition of Bakkavor earlier this year, creating one of the UK’s largest food manufacturing groups.
Will Grant, Portfolio Director of Summerfield Estates, said: “We are delighted to have completed a new ten-year lease with Greencore, further strengthening Isleport Business Park’s position as an important hub for food production, logistics and manufacturing in the region.
“The agreement secures the future of a significant local facility and enables an almost 30-year association with food production at Highbridge to continue.”
