Procuring Your New Commercial Property – What Do You Need?

Leasing commercial property can sometimes be a challenge to anyone, from a small business owner who is new to the market, to a procurement director of a major blue-chip company.  Anyone who has built a small business to the stage where they have needed to lease their own commercial warehouse knows the excitement and challenges that this can bring.  Through this process, WebWarehouse’s assistance in guiding you through will be invaluable.

Location is not only important to companies in the retail industry – they apply to your company, too.  Are you close enough to major motorway connections, to keep down the costs of your warehouse distribution?  Is there room for a storage container, or is it near to storage buildings, should your stock levels suddenly increase?  All of these things can refine your search for the ideal commercial location.  Here at WebWarehouse, we take the time to get to know you and your business, and understand your current requirements and plans for future growth.  Only when we have a full understanding of your business, are we able to find the right commercial warehouse for you.

Nothing could be more disruptive to your move into your new commercial property than to see it disrupted by a major road renovation or a nearby building project or city improvement.  WebWarehouse take the time to research the local area to your search to make sure there are no nasty surprises.

WebWarehouse works with a carefully selected group of maintenance partners to fully inspect the storage warehouses before any agreements are signed, as there is nothing worse than discovering a roof in need of repair or some leaky plumbing which could delay your move.  The team are also on hand to make any alterations you require before moving in, or carry out any maintenance you require at a later date.

Procuring Your Own Warehouse vs. Third Party Commercial Storage

In 2008, Simon Varlow of WebWarehouse was approached by the Logistics Director within the Ecommerce division of River Island, the high street clothing retailer.  A major increase in their on-line sales meant they were quickly outgrowing their large warehouse in Milton Keynes.

River Island were concerned that they were not going to find a solution to tick all of their boxes – a property on a one to two-year lease, within three miles of their current retail distribution centre, with room for twenty members of warehouse and office staff, and a high level of security – but WebWarehouse pride themselves on their ability to make what may seem impossible possible.

The first idea that WebWarehouse explored was to find warehouse space to rent within a shared warehouse, but they felt that it wouldn’t give the high level of security that River Island needed for their operation.  Once WebWarehouse had dismissed that idea, they set about finding a commercial warehouse for River Island, on a short-term lease.  With an ease that surprised River Island, WebWarehouse were almost immediately able to find what they were looking for.  Within a short space of time, WebWarehouse had everything in place for River Islands on-line distribution team to relocate.
