Property consultants Alder King and Jones Lang LaSalle have secured a new occupier at Whitefriars, one of Bristol city centre’s landmark buildings acquired last year by private investment company Topland.
The SpiderGroup, which was founded in Bristol in 2002 and provides cloud computing and IT services, has relocated from offices on Telephone Avenue in Bristol city centre, which were being redeveloped as student accommodation. The 11-strong company has taken a five-year lease on Unit 4B at Whitefriars, a 1,640 sq ft suite on the fourth floor, double the size of its previous accommodation.
SpiderGroup managing director James Cook said Whitefriars provided a great central location and the right mix of amenities.
“Many of our clients are in Bristol city centre,” he said, “and we wanted to stay local to them. Many of our staff members either walk or cycle into work so again it was important to remain central. We are very pleased with the move and the range of facilities and break out areas in the building.”
Whitefriars provides a total of 145,000 sq ft of modern office and ancillary accommodation over 11 storeys in a prime central location. Alder King and Jones Lang LaSalle are marketing over 54,000 sq ft of space on new rental terms of £9 per sq ft, together with a capped service charge.
