A £6 million project to develop a new vehicle showroom and service facilities for TrustFord has been completed at Hillington Park.
The 29,000 sq ft building with 171 parking spaces for cars and vans, which was pre-let to TrustFord, has been finished on time and on budget seven months after works began on the 3.7-acre site close to the main entrance of the industrial estate.
The BREEAM ‘Excellent’ development was built by Muir Construction. TrustFord’s fit-out will begin this month and the new and used car and commercial vehicles showroom is expected to open in April.
Grant Edmondson, commercial director at Hillington Park, said, “It was essential we met our customer’s expectations and achieve practical completion of the development by the end of 2023. So I must congratulate Muir Construction and the whole project team for delivering an impressive, high-quality new development in line with an accelerated construction programme.
“The lease was also concluded on the last working day before the festive break and we handed over the building to TrustFord to enable their fit-out team to start works on the first working day of the New Year. Our focus now is to find further bespoke-build development opportunities for Hillington Park in 2024.”
TrustFord will join a cluster of major automotive brands including Volvo, Jaguar, BMW, MINI, Renault, Dacia, Harley Davidson, Ducati and Triumph.
