Trowbridge – 39 The Shires
1 October 2008Acting for Special Occasions (Greetings) Ltd, a well-respected greeting cards retailer, I negotiated acquisition of a new lease at 39 The Shires, Trowbridge, for a term of 10 years from October 2008.
Special Occasions was a partnership with 4 shops when I first started acting for the Client. The business later incorporated and over the years the company took on another 10 shops, a total of 14 branches net of short-time experiences. Carterton, Cheltenham (for a while) Chepstow, Cirencester (for a short while), Fishponds (Bristol), Gloucester, Hereford, Leominster, Monmouth, Roath (Cardiff), Ross on Wye, Stroud, Tewkesbury, Trowbridge, Whiteladies (Bristol) (for a while), Witney, and Yate.
I dealt with rent reviews, lease renewals, and acquisition diligence, and tenancy matters arising, including assignments from the partnership to the company. My services came to an end after the business was sold to Cardzone, another greeting cards multiple retailer.
