£4m phase of Yorkshire business park set to create up to 50 jobs

The latest £4m phase of a business park in Yorkshire is set to create up to 50 jobs for locals.

The 22-acre Broadhelm Business Park is set to become home to 24,300 sq ft of industrial warehouse and trade counter space under new plans.

The Broadhelm Venture has recently received planning approval for the project from East Riding of Yorkshire Council.

Permission for the new phase follows the completion of the Helmsley Court development which saw the construction of 11,000 sq ft of business space.

Work is scheduled to commence in the summer of 2020, and is expected to create a raft of jobs across construction and local supply chain, as well as new positions with occupiers.

The Broadhelm Venture is a joint venture between York-based property company, Helmsley Group and East Riding based Broadvale Developments.

Ed Harrowsmith, a director at York-based Helmsley Group, commented: “The previous phases of the development have really taken off, with lots of interest from both local and national businesses.

“This success has paved the way for the next phase which will see us being able to offer even more occupier and employment opportunities.

“The site’s connectivity, as well as the flexibility of the units we’re offering makes Broadhelm Business Park an attractive proposition for businesses, which in turn, creates more jobs for local residents.

Jonathan Atkinson, managing director of Broadvale Developments, added: “Broadhelm Business Park has already proven to be, not only a successful commercial site, but one that has provided a vital link between the town of Pocklington to local employment opportunities.”
