Anchoring Maxim

The financial restructuring of Maxim Office Park, Lanarkshire has brought a swift success with the anchor letting to the Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA). It has leased 5,574 sq.metres (60,000 sq.ft.) in the Maxim 6 building, which allows the agency to bring staff under one roof and provide a laboratory to complement the one it has in Aberdeen.

David Gebbie of Arisaig Property Partners who are the new asset managers of Maxim said the financial changes allowed “both parties to achieve a leasing deal that previously couldn’t have been achieved.”

The importance of the new facility was emphasised by Scotland’s Environment Secretary, Richard Lochhead, who said: “The move will help develop closer working between partners within Scotland’s public sector. The new facility will house another first class laboratory and achieve excellent standards of energy efficiency and environmental performance.”

The deal, with London Clancy acting for the landlords and Hurst Warne for Laleham, means the healthcare company can consolidate its dispensary, laboratory, storage and packaging facilities

in Basingstoke from which they will carry out nationwide distribution via the M3 and M4 motorways. The warehouse known as Central 37 has been extensively refurbished and gives Laleham more space at its Alton factory to support expansion plans.
