The go-ahead has been given for construction of 20 new industrial units at a thriving business park in Scarborough.
South Yorkshire based Priority Space is behind the £6 million commercial property development which will create 54,058 square feet of speculative industrial or distribution workspace.
The new estate of units, ranging in size from 1,500 to 6,000 sq ft, will be built on a 3.1 acre plot of land acquired from Caddick Construction.

Adam Richardson, director of Priority Space, said: “We’re delighted to announce we’ll be adding this development of useful-sized business units to Scarborough’s established business park. Our aim is to provide ambitious SMEs with the perfect base to grow their business.”
Scarborough Business Park is already home to 50 big businesses including McCain foods, Plaxton coachbuilders, TEF Transport, NFU and Raflatac global label printers.
It is located in Eastfield, just off the A64, four miles from Scarborough town centre.
Mr Richardson said: “It’s time we stopped considering coastal locations as the ‘back of beyond’ in commercial property terms. Scarborough is well positioned, with good transport links, world-class connectivity and the added attraction of being on the beautiful Yorkshire coast. As developers, we aim to deliver schemes which stimulate and support regeneration in communities like Scarborough. It’s a great place to do business.”
Planning permission was gained from Scarborough Borough Council. Construction is due to commence in September with expected competition May 2022.
