Jobs created after business chooses Worksop as location for its UK distribution hub

NSM has let two units at the Shireoaks Networkcentre, on Coach Crescent, in Shireoaks

An existing tenant as expanded into a second unit and bed supplier Bakare Beds Limited, has moved into 2,730 sq ft unit, which it will use as its distribution hub.

Managing director of Bakare Beds said: “Shireoaks Networkcentre offers a great location for our deliveries which come from across Europe as well as the ability to distribute our products around the UK.

"It is a great central, easily accessible location and provides modern premises which we have fit out to our specific requirements.

“We have already recruited four local people, including a new logistics manager, and continue to look for talent to support our growth.

"It’s a really exciting time for the business and, although the pandemic has been very challenging, it has enabled us to take stock and make some important decisions about how to best manage our expansion and service our customers around the country.”

Helen Gordon, associate director at NSM, said: “We are delighted to welcome Bakare Beds to the Shireoaks business community.

We have seen strong demand as the workspace offer flexible, secure space and great access to the M1.

"With only two units remaining at the site and strong interest I’m sure the networkcentre will soon be fully let, particularly with the recent surge in online retail.”
