A LOCAL development firm has announced a £2.5 million expansion after purchasing Chanonry Court in Elgin.
Gairland, which owns a collection of properties across Moray, has added 18 industrial units and warehouses to its portfolio.
The deal also included the purchase of Chanonry House, a serviced business centre which now acts as the company’s new headquarters.
The business will rent out the properties and is offering prospective tenants a range of incentives including heavily discounted meeting room hire and virtual office services.
Erin Beaton, Gairland’s Letting Manager, said: “We see the needs of small and medium sized businesses changing rapidly, especially now that new technologies are coming into play.
“Our priority is making sure we are offering all the services a growing business needs in order to thrive, and that we’re doing this on one, fantastic site.
“That is why we are delighted to offer these newly-built units with a range of discounted perks for tenants, like meeting room hire and virtual offices.
“This purchase represents a multi-million pound expansion for Gairland, which we intend to bolster over the coming years with a programme of continual investment and improvement to the site.”
The £2.5million investment in Elgin was welcomed by local business leaders.
Sarah Medcraf, CEO of Moray Chamber of Commerce, said: "We are delighted to see a local business continue to invest in the area and expand the commercial rental market.
“We’ve used the meeting room service at Chanonry House on many occasions now because we find it to be a professional yet calming space.
“The flexibility in the booking process and the facilities available make it a great option for us when looking for a meeting space.”
