The scheme is now fully let. The letting also underlines how Folkes’ customer-led approach offers occupiers the flexibility to grow and relocate within the same portfolio.”

Shaun Lea, EMEA Director at Shields Environmental, added: “As our business continues to expand, it is great to able to continue our relationship with Folkes and grow within the portfolio. Tame Park is in an ideal position for us, and we look forward to further success in our new location.”
