Finding business premises
Selecting the right premises and location for your business is an important decision, whether you are starting out, growing an established business, looking for office space or searching for a large production area or warehouse
Key points to consider
Before you begin your search:
- identify the type of premises you need e.g. office space, retail unit, warehouse, or co-working space
- work out how much space you will need for staff, equipment and storage
- think about how close you need to be to transport links, your customers, suppliers or even your competitors
- assess your infrastructure requirements, including utilities, security, and parking
- consider how your requirements might change in the future
- decide whether to buy, rent, or lease
- consider how much you can afford to spend on your premises and running costs
