Yorkshire Jaguar specialist thrives in new business park

A South Yorkshire independent garage which provides specialist services for Jaguars and Land Rovers is celebrating its first year in business at a new business park in South Yorkshire.

SSG Prestige was established by Stuart Openshaw and co-directors Scott Newman and Gary Crowcroft in October 2020 and was one of the first companies to move into Barrowfield Business Park.

The site was completed one year ago by commercial property developers Priority Space, in partnership with H.G. Sites. It covers 25,000 sq ft and provides 15 units for industrial, storage and distribution use, between 1,250 sq ft – 2,250 sq ft in size.

Director of startup company SSG Prestige Stuart Openshaw said: “Because we provide specialist services to the owners of Land Rovers and Jaguars, we attract customers from a wide catchment area with some driving up to 150 miles to reach us from as far afield as Newcastle and Lincoln.

“We knew we needed somewhere that was easy to reach and find when we were looking for premises, and Barrowfiled is just ten minutes from the M1 and A1 and accessed by one quick turn off the A628 link road.

“The new, clean and brightly-lit unit was also perfect for us as it meant we could fit it out exactly as we wanted it and maintain a pristine working environment, which lots of customers really appreciate when we’re looking after their pride and joy.

“We don’t think we could have had a better place to set up and run our business.”

Lee Buchanan, director of commercial property developers Priority Space, said: “Our aim in creating Barrowfield Business Park was to deliver high-quality, accessible workspaces in a well-placed location for local businesses and, one year on, it’s great to see the site full and companies like SSG Prestige thriving and bringing investment and jobs into the local economy.”
