Construction includes two new units on Plot 9, each providing 36,000ft² of office and technical space.  

Plot 9 units feature steel frames and cladding that align with the existing structures at the MTP.  

These units will offer open-plan workshops, offices, service yards, and parking, all completed to CAT A fit-out standards.  

The project also includes the construction of an access road and the installation of sitewide services. 

GMI Midlands Divisional managing director Gareth Jones said: “We are incredibly proud to have reached this key stage in the development and underlines GMI’s growing pipeline of work in the Midlands.  

“We are delighted with our partnership with Swanvale and look forward to continuing our collaboration on future projects that drive investment and innovation in the region.”
