The Opportunity
Shrewsbury Business Park is the premier office location in Shropshire’s county town, situated on the edge of the town and close to the A5, A49 and M54 – giving it ready access to Birmingham, the Black Country, Wales and the North West.
Phase II on a new 6 hectares site (15 acres) on the Park has planning consent and will provide a further 15,000 sq m (160,000 sq ft) of office and business space – including a small local centre comprising a small supermarket and number of shops.
The Project Owner Alaska can provide custom-built developments for investors and owner-occupiers – meeting the needs of growing local businesses as well as regional, national and international firms seeking a presence in the area.
A premier location

The Business Park is the outcome of a successful long-term relationship between Shropshire Council, the former Shropshire County Council and the Alaska Property Group. The development comprises 2,322 m² (250,000 sq ft) of office space, generating £53m of investment and creating or safeguarding 1,100 jobs. Occupants already established on the Park include Handlesbanken, Holiday Inn, Jacobs Engineering Group, Brewin Dolphin, The NFU, and Shropshire County NHS.
