North Shields cable management firm expands across North East with new offices

A North Shields cable management firm has announced that it is expanding across the North East following a local industrial deal.

D-Line Europe, which focuses on helping households and businesses secure electrical cables, has agreed on a ten-year lease with HTA Real Estate.

The company has made the move to a newly refurbished space on West Chirton Industrial Estate in North Shields from its Tyne Tunnel Trading Estate base.

Nick Atkinson, director at HTA Real Estate, commented: “Demand for quality industrial space in the region sees no sign of abating.

“Forthcoming new development projects will deliver much-needed fresh stock, but in the meantime well-positioned units like this, where significant investment has been made to comprehensively modernise and refurbish the premises, are particularly sought after.”

Geoff Clark, director at Ravensworth Property Developments, said: “HTA Real Estate, Naylors Gavin Black and D-Line have been a pleasure to work with on this scheme and it’s been fantastic to secure a tenant who is committed to making significant operational investment in our region, over the long term.”

Kevin Davis, operations director at D-Line, added: “We have been actively looking for an opportunity to bring together all of our operations under one roof and we are very pleased to have been able to do that here at Alder Lane.

“The large yard area provides us with the ability to manage the logistics side of the business and we have sufficient capacity to accommodate further expansion in the years ahead.”
