Vax Sweeps up More Space at Two Colmore Row

Birmingham based Nurton Developments has let a further 14,000 sq ft to floorcare brand Vax at its Two Colmore Square offices in Birmingham city centre.

Vax relocated its offices from Droitwich to Birmingham city centre in 2011 and has now taken additional space and extended its existing lease for a further 10 years, committing to 35,000 sq ft in total.

Rupert Young, development director at Nurton Developments said: “Vax is a fantastic name to have at Two Colmore Square and in Birmingham. It’s exactly the sort of company this city is looking to attract, with design and innovation at its heart.

“For Nurton, Two Colmore Square has been a top performer, weathering the downturn and consistently letting space. Now with only 44,678 sq ft remaining, it is part of an ever-decreasing amount of middle-band Grade A space available in the city centre. We expect interest to remain strong during 2014. We’re already in talks with a number of interested parties on the remaining floor/s.”

Nurton was represented during the negotiations by GVA who are joint agents for Two Colmore Square with the Birmingham office of CBRE. Shoosmiths carried out Nurton’s legals.
