The subject property comprises a detached factory/warehouse unit which dates from circa 2006. The building was originally constructed as a warehouse facility but has been converted to a food preparation factory constructed to the highest standards and extending to 125,087 sq ft. The base specification of the building is a steel portal frame to an eaves height of 12 metres with insulated profile sheet cladding to walls and roof and is accessed via eight dock level loading doors and a single level loading door. Externally, there is a large concrete service yard and approximately 207 car parking spaces. The building has been used for the preparation of food and internally has been compartmentalised to form a number of high quality food preparation areas within the 118,877 sq ft main production area. The various preparation areas have been created using food hygiene quality insulated panels. The suspended ceilings above these areas have also been created using food quality insulation panels and are capable of housing air handling systems and other services above. The floors within the preparation areas have been graded incorporating an internal drainage system which drains into the facility’s own effluent treatment plant. The floors have also been sealed and coated with appropriate materials in accordance with food hygiene standards. There is a high bay warehouse area which was originally used for storing incoming goods which also has a cold store facility. The property also benefits from staff amenity areas including changing/locker rooms, canteen facilities and general production offices.
