DJ PROPERTY has announced that Link Park has had a very busy and successful first year with the second phase of the development nearing completion. DJ Property is on track to complete over 50,000 sq ft of new employment buildings at Link Park by the end of 2015.
Screwfix was the first business to occupy one of the units at Link Park. Screwfix Weymouth store manager, Ian Caruana, said “At Screwfix we pride ourselves on the speed, reliability and convenience of our service and Link Park offers the ideal location to enable us to offer that service to the area’s tradesmen and DIY enthusiasts. We have enjoyed a successful first year at the Park and look forward to continuing to provide the region’s tradesmen with easy access to all the essentials they need, so they are fully prepared for any job.”
Toolstation quickly followed by occupying one of the adjoining units, Weymouth branch manager, Dorian Dando Toolstation said “It’s an exciting time for Toolstation Weymouth being one of the first companies located at Link Park. As more units get built and more businesses open it benefits everyone trading here. Certainly at Toolstation we have noticed that the easy parking and access for our customers helps their overall shopping experience, which in turn encourages them to return.”
Mickey Jones, Chief Executive of DJ Property, the company developing Weymouth’s newest business park said “Phase 1 at Link Park let very quickly to national brands such as Euro Car Parts, Halfords Autocentre, Topps Tiles, Toolstation and Screwfix and they have all enjoyed a very busy first year. DJ Property as a trusted, professional developer of commercial property continues to build long-term relationships with many local, national and international businesses. Phase 2 of the development at Link Park is now well underway with seven more high quality business units being built in a slightly different way from the first phase. The second phase will consist of units measuring between 1,650 sq ft and 2,500 sq ft and will be particularly attractive to local small to medium sized businesses looking to expand their business into high quality new commercial space. The units will be of market leading quality and are very visible from the busy Chickerell Link Road, just what occupiers are demanding in today’s market.
Almost 100% of DJ Property’s units on the Granby Industrial Estate, Lynch Lane Industrial Estate and Link Park are currently occupied, which is at the highest level in the past six years. The new units at Link Park should be ready for occupation by late Summer 2014. Link Park’s direct frontage onto the Chickerell Link Road and proximity to Weymouth’s major roads makes it the ideal location for many businesses. Buildings at Link Park are amongst the highest quality available in South Dorset and all units benefit from reduced cost solar PV generated electricity.
