A former automotive component manufacturing plant, Westcore acquired the building from NAMA in 2014. The building was in a very poor state of repair, with 40% of the space vacant. Upon acquisition, Westcore commenced a £2.5 million refurbishment of the vacant space, together with an extensive marketing and leasing campaign. Following the refurbishment, Westcore leased all of the remaining vacant space to Bunzl UK and Amazon, a total of 14,000 sq.m.
