A specialist health and care consultancy is moving into refurbished offices on the established Solihull Business Park, thanks to Multifleet Vehicle Management.

UB Healthcare is renting the ground floor of Remus 1, at 2 Cranbrook Way, as tenants of Multifleet, a fleet management and vehicle leasing company trading as runyourfleet, which is based on the floor above.

The ground floor space is a flexible modern office area with a security-controlled entrance and car parking spaces in the on-site car park.

Steve Whitmarsh, chief executive of runyourfleet, said: “When we first bought this property, we always intended to provide the ground floor as a base for another business, and we’re delighted that UB Healthcare are now moving in.

“Being a part of the local business sector is incredibly important to us, so to have a successful and growing healthcare consultancy as neighbours has made the whole place even more motivating.”

Uko Umotong, co-founder and director of UB Healthcare, said: “Moving into our new headquarters marks an exciting new chapter for UB Healthcare.

“Solihull has always been home to us – both my co-founder Harry Bourton and I live in the borough – so it was important that, as we continued to grow, we invested in the local economy and created opportunities here.

“I’d like to personally thank Steve Whitmarsh and the Multifleet team for the support they provided throughout the process. Steve played an important role in helping us secure this fantastic office, and we’re delighted to now be neighbours.

“As two ambitious Solihull businesses working side by side, we’re excited about the opportunities ahead, not only for our own organisations but for the wider borough.”

Cllr Heather Delaney, deputy leader of Solihull Council and the cabinet member for Economy, Employment & Skills, said: “It is fantastic to see two successful Solihull businesses supporting each other’s growth.

“Both runyourfleet and UB Healthcare are thriving, high-growth companies that are creating jobs and investing in the borough.

“We were pleased to help UB Healthcare with its initial property search and welcome this latest expansion, which demonstrates Solihull’s continued appeal as a location for ambitious businesses looking to grow.”

Cranbrook Way is around three miles south of Solihull town centre and neighbours other major office and logistics developments such as Blythe Valley Business Park.
