Bruntwood welcomes Mint Umbrella to Liverpool’s Cotton Exchange

Marketing and media agency Mint Umbrella has become the latest creative business to arrive at Liverpool’s Cotton Exchange.

The firm has agreed a 625 sq ft letting at the Bixteth Street building, which is already home to the likes of music events business Loud Sound, LGBT lifestyle magazine Seen and open source software engineers The Inviqa Group.

Mint Umbrella is a full service agency headed up by business partners Nicky Rigby-Smith and Clare Barber-Delve. It has just become the first marketing agency in the country to have established a Primary Authority Partnership with Trading Standards.

The Bruntwood-owned building has undergone a multimillion pound refurbishment in recent years and it is also now a core point of presence on the Metronet (UK) high-speed internet network.

Clare Barber-Delve at Mint Umbrella said: “As the business continues to evolve, we want to ensure we are well positioned to capitalise on opportunities for further growth and getting the right premises is a major part of that equation.

“The Cotton Exchange impressed us with its refurbished space, impressive architecture and history as well as the flexible terms on offer and we’re confident it will provide us with a great platform to achieve our goals.”

Matt Lee, sales surveyor at Bruntwood, said: “Cotton Exchange is fast becoming a destination for businesses from across the creative sector, attracted by its market-leading internet connectivity and central location in the commercial district.

“We are delighted to welcome Mint Umbrella and we look forward to supporting the business as it continues to grow.”
