Glasgow is the largest city in Scotland and third most populous in the UK. The population of the city was 580000 in 2007 and 2.3m for Glasgow and surrounding towns of the conurbation, 41% of Scotland’s population.
Glasgow has seen more changes in the past 2 decades than almost any other British city. From a declining industrial centre with widespread pessimism about its future, Glasgow has been transformed into a forward-looking city and one of the hippest spots in Europe.
Today, Glasgow is an important financial centre. The Financial district is located in the western edge of the city centre, occupying the areas of Blythswood Hill and Anderston, known officially as the International Financial Services District (IFSD), although often irreverently nicknamed by the contemporary press as the “square kilometre” or “Wall Street on Clyde”.

Economy…

Glasgow has the largest economy in Scotland and is at the hub of the metropolitan area of West Central Scotland. Glasgow’s economy has seen a significant growth of tertiary sector industries such as financial and business services, communications, creative industries, healthcare, higher education, retail and tourism.
Between 1998 and today, the city’s financial services sector grew at a rate of 30%, making considerable gains on Edinburgh, which has historically been the centre of the Scottish financial sector.

Today, the city is one of Europe’s sixteen largest financial centres. A growing number of Blue chip financial sector companies have significant operations or headquarters in Glasgow. The city still retains a strong link to the manufacturing sector which accounts for well over 60% of Scotland’s manufactured exports, with particular strengths in shipbuilding, engineering and publishing.

Office Rental Levels…

According to the Jones Lang LaSalle annual Glasgow City Report, rental levels in the city are likely to accelerate from the current standing at £25 per sq ft to £28.5 per sq m in 2008 and are predicted to reach £339 per sq m by 2012. Rental levels also vary considerably from £15 to £35 per sq ft, a factor of changing licensed circuits and the clear difference between the corporate and private markets.

Total office take up in 2007 was 808930 sq ft, a 28% increase on the previous year, and 63% ahead of the ten-year average of 494690 sq ft. The professional services sector was the most active in terms of office take up in 2007, accounting for 30%, closely followed by the financial services sector accounting for 27% of occupier take up in the city centre.

All these figures clearly reveal that lettings in Glasgow’s office market are significantly ahead of the ten-year average and will result in increased competition for available property.

Transport…

Glasgow has a large urban transport system, mostly managed by the Strathclyde Partnership for Transport (SPT). The city has the most extensive urban rail network in the UK outside of London with rail services travelling to a large part of the West of Scotland. Glasgow Central is the terminus of the 401 mile long West Coast Main Line from London Euston.

The city is the focus of Scotland’s trunk road network and has many road connections to other cities. The main M8 motorway passes through the city centre, and connects to the M77, M73, and M80 motorways.

Glasgow is also served by two international airports and a seaplane terminal: Glasgow International Airport in Paisley in the west of the city, Glasgow Prestwick International Airport and Glasgow Seaplane Terminal, by the Glasgow Science Centre on the River Clyde.

The Tourism, Attractiveness of the city…

Glasgow offers easy access to some of Scotland’s beautiful mountains, glens, lochs and coastline.
The cultural and artistic fields are 2 strengths of Glasgow. The city possesses a world-class art gallery and several excellent museums that attract thousands of people every year. In 1999, Glasgow was awarded the title of UK City of Architecture and Design, which attest to the great variety of high-quality design within the city, with Victorian, Regency, art nouveau and ultra-modern styles all represented.
Business travellers to Glasgow should find no surprises in the way in which business is carried out. The atmosphere is a little more relaxed than in cities such as London, although normal standards of business attire apply and punctuality is important. Most companies operate during standard business hours of Monday-Friday 0900-1700.

Edinburgh is the capital of Scotland. The city is the second largest conurbation after Glasgow which is 45 miles away. It has been the Scottish capital since 1437 and is the seat of the Scottish Parliament. The Old town and New Town districts of the city are listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site since 1995. There are over 4500 listed buildings within the city.
The current population is 450,000 and is expected to grow by 50,000 over the next 10 years. The population rises to 1 million during the famous August festivals. The City is recognised and consistently ranked one of the best locations internationally to live.

Economy…

Edinburgh has the strongest economy of any city in the UK outside London. The economy of Edinburgh has recently been announced as one of the fastest growing city regions in Europe.

The economy of Edinburgh is largely based around the services sector, mainly banking, financial services and tourism. Banking has been a part of the economic life of the city for over 300 years, with the establishment of the Bank of Scotland. Today, Edinburgh has emerged as Europe’s sixth largest financial centre.
The Bank of Scotland, headquartered in Edinburgh, is the fifth largest bank in the world, opened new headquarters at Gogarburn in the west of the city and a registered office in St. Andrew Square.

Office Rental Levels…

The start of 2008 has been positive as regards to office space. Cushman & Wakefield has announced that the take up of office space was over 200,000 square feet in the last 3 months.
According to CB Richard Ellis, there is still 2.4 million square feet of office space available in Edinburgh. However, there is apparently a shortage of small office space in the capital.
With the current economic situation, it seems that the take up of larger tenancies has declined and that the vast majority of smaller office locations have been occupied. However, business centre operators’ buildings opening up this year should be the answer the high demand for grade B offices, which is suitable for SME’s who have smaller budgets as well as corporate and other businesses willing to downsize during the credit crunch.

Transport…

Edinburgh has two mainline stations, Haymarket and Waterley. The main station is Waterley, located in the city centre, between Edinburgh Old Town and the New Town. The two main train stations are Waverley station, Edinburgh’s mainline station, and Haymarket station, Edinburgh’s original second mainline station.
The city also has an airport 20 minutes away from the city centre. There are regular bus services to and from the airport. A typical flight between Edinburgh and London would take approximately 40 minutes.

The Tourism, Attractiveness of the city…

The city is one of Europe’s major tourist destinations, attracting over 13 million visitors each year, and is the second most visited city in the UK, after London.
Edinburgh is well-known for the annual Edinburgh Festival, a collection of official and independent festivals held annually over about four weeks from early August. The number of visitors attracted to Edinburgh for the Festival is roughly equal to the settled population of the city. The most famous of these events are the Edinburgh Fringe (the largest performing arts festival in the world), the Edinburgh Comedy Festival (the largest comedy festival in the world), the Edinburgh International Festival, the Edinburgh Military Tattoo, the Edinburgh International Film Festival, and the Edinburgh International Book Festival.

UBC Area Manager Richard Johnson said: “This first deal for UBC Wakefield is a real coup; not only is it a substantial space requirement, but the enquiry has come from a traditional commercial agent whose client was looking for a highly flexible arrangement.”

Jonathon White at Sanderson Weatherall said: “Alexander Forbes needed modern high quality space on flexible terms at a well-connected address in Yorkshire to continue their expansion into the North of England. Having undertaken a comprehensive search of both serviced and traditional office space in the area we are pleased to have located and negotiated the ideal product on behalf of our client.’’

David Pye, Regional Director at Alexander Forbes added: “As a national financial services company, we have a firm commitment to the continued development of our offering and needed flexible and cost-effective office space in Yorkshire without compromising on quality. Our second base in the North of England, 1 Mariner Court is a perfect place to continue our expansion and we look forward to building further on our successes in the region.”

Calder Park is one of the fastest growing business parks in the region and has attracted a number of high profile occupiers drawn by the transport links, environment and facilities on offer. Incorporating a 100 acre nature reserve, the park is adjacent to the M1 and is home to a wide range of businesses including Mercedes Benz, Balfour Beattie, Mitsubishi Electric and the Highways Agency.

Glasgow has the largest economy in Scotland and is at the hub of the metropolitan area of West Central Scotland.

Shane Duffy of the International Corporate Centre, with serviced office complexes on Stephen’s Green and Harcourt Street says that enquiries are up forty percent on last year’s figures despite the downturn. ‘Despite a general oversupply of office space in the market, demand for serviced business centres is strong.’ The demand is such says Duffy that his company will shortly open a new building in Dublin 2 within the next six months with further business centres in the planning stages.

International Corporate Centre operates in the higher end of the market with a diverse range of tenants ranging from embassies and government agencies to legal firms and shipping companies.

While the conventional office market continues to struggle, business centres are now one of the best performing, prime growth sectors in commercial property. While there is a considerable oversupply of conventional office space, the opposite is true of serviced offices, which face the challenge of keeping up with overwhelming demand.

Duffy explains why he concentrates on the serviced office market. ‘The two most important factors for occupiers when acquiring office space are capital expenditure and flexibility. In the current economic climate occupiers do not want to commit to lengthy and costly leaseholds. “Small and growing companies in particular cannot predict what their head count will be in twelve months, let alone five years, so they require workplace which will allow them to expand or contract according to their needs.”

Managed business space provides an attractive proposition for businesses in this uncertain economic climate, and provides the leading operators in the sector with a growth opportunity, while playing an important role in providing flexible workspace solutions to meet the needs of modern day business.”

So what do clients of International Corporate Centre’s benefit from versus traditional offices?

The International Corporate Centre appeals to occupiers who require highly flexible, unbranded office space tailor made to meet the requirements of the individual business. This flexibility is underpinned by competitively priced and transparent fixed-costs, so occupiers can account for every penny they are spending on their office needs.

Cardiff is the capital and the largest city and county in Wales. As well as being the political capital, it is Wales’s capital of business, education, sport, tourism, culture, media and government. According to recent local government estimates, the population of the Cardiff area is 317,500 people.

Cardiff is home to the Welsh National Assembly. In the early 1900s, the city was one of the great power-house of the British Empire, exporting large amount of coal and steel. When these industries died, in the end of the 20th century, Cardiff lost the majority of its economic activities. However, with the help of the EU and the British government, new employers have moved to the city, and Cardiff has now more to offer than ever before.

Economy…

As the capital of Wales, Cardiff is the main engine of growth in the Welsh economy.
The city is today the principal finance and business services centres in Wales, and as such is a strong representation of finance and business services in the local economy. This strong representation of finance and business services in the local economy combined with the Public Administration, Education and Health sectors, have accounted for around 75% of Cardiff’s economic growth since 1991.
Cardiff is part of the Eurocities network of the largest European Cities. The city was also recently placed 7th overall in the top 50 European cities by the Foreign Direct Invester Magazine.

Office Space Rental Levels…

Many property agents have been surprised from last year’s record on office space takes up in Cardiff. Half way through 2007, the figures were 20% down compare to 2006.

The City has managed to attract some big name companies such as Admiral Insurance and the National Audit Office.

Following the success of 2007, property developers have announced new development in the city in order to respond to the high demand of office space in the Welsh capital.
PMG Estates, commercial property developers, are going to develop 91000 sq ft of prime office space at Trident Park, Cardiff Bay, as a gateway to the Ocean Park business site. In addition, to respond to respond to the tight meeting room space available in the city, and to hopefully drive down costs for local businesses, several serviced office space operators as well as hotel have recently opened additional meeting rooms.

Cardiff has a comprehensive bus network providing a vast majority of destinations in the city, as well as Newport, Penarth, Barry and Cardiff International Airport.
The airport is located at Rhoose, 12 miles southwest of the city centre. It currently handles about 1.5 million passengers annually, with a capacity for 3 million. The airport offers flights to all major UK and European cities. A typical flight between Cardiff and London would have a flying time of about 16 minutes.

Birmingham is the largest of England’s core cities, and is often considered as the second city of the United Kingdom. The city has a population of around 990,000 but the Birmingham metropolitan area, including Wolverhampton, Coventry and the Black Country, has a population of over 2,500,000.
Birmingham is one of the world’s leading cities for conferences, exhibitions and events. The National Exhibition Centre (NEC) and the National Indoor Arena (NIA) provide an infrastructure superior to any in the UK, with the capability to sustain major events including, in recent years, the World Indoor Championship Athletics and the International Horse of the Year Show. The NEC has hosted events such as the Davis Cup or the G8 Summit. With major facilities such as the International Convention Centre and National Exhibition Centre, the Birmingham area accounts 42% of the UK conference and exhibition trade.

Economy…

Forecasts suggest that output and productivity are set to grow over the next five years with the service sector and the visitor economy creating up to 50,000 additional jobs in the city in the next 10 years.
Birmingham has developed into a national commercial centre that has been recognized by Cushman & Wakefield as the third best place in the UK to locate a business and the 21st in Europe. Two of the leading UK banks were founded in Birmingham: Lloyds Bank and HSBC.
The city’s industrial heritage survives to this day, in that Birmingham is still a base for engineering and manufacturing when these are struggling sectors elsewhere in the UK. In fact a huge proportion of UK exports come from Birmingham. Manufacturing will continue to be a key element of the City’s economy, with an increasing focus on high-technology production.

Office Space Rental Levels…

Birmingham came out top in the 2007 ranking of serviced office hotspots in the UK, by Search Office Space. The City is far ahead on rival towns and cities when it comes to demand for serviced and managed office space from the business community.
Birmingham is really coming on strong on the office space market, and the announcement by Development Securities and Grainger of new office space development really cements the long term strategy of becoming the first choice for businesses.
A project of 1.4m sq ft of office, residential, hotel and leisure space in the eastside area within the city has just been approved this year, to respond to the high demand in Birmingham. This will be developed on a 10.5 acre site and work will commence towards the end of the year 2008. Phase one will see 120,000 sq ft of office space, a 200 bedroom hotel and retail and leisure space. The total cost for the scheme stands at £400m.
In 2008, the opening of new serviced offices has been announced by several Business Centre Operators, such as Equipoint, to respond to the high demand of flexible office space.
Birmingham aspires to be a world city and has projects in the pipeline that would deliver world class space. The employment growth in the city has been between 3% and 4% per annum, which support the development of all the new space available. The Central Birmingham office market is estimated to contain around 13m sq ft of offices. The market is seen as running from Aston University in the east to Edgbaston in the west, taking in the Eastside schemes, Snow Hill, the traditional centre, Broad Street, Brindley Place and ending at the tower blocks of Hagley Road in Edgbaston.

Transport…

Public transportation in and around the city is primarily by bus. Some suburbs are served by rail links, but these are the exception rather than the rule.
The total distance from Birmingham to London is 102 miles and the total drive time is about 1 hour, 51 minutes.
Birmingham International Airport is easily accessible by most transport modes. The airport rail station, Birmingham International, is only a two minute ride away on the free Air-Rail Link and is served by frequent national, regional and local rail services.
The national motorway network is within easy reach; the airport is just one mile from Junction 6 of the M42 with direct links to the M6, M5, M40, M1 and the M6 Toll Road.

The Tourism, Attractiveness of the city…

Tourism is also increasingly important part of the local economy.
Whether it’s Aston Villa and Birmingham City playing host, there’s nearly always a top class game in town at the weekend, which pushes more an more corporate to organize their days out in Birmingham, to see the Premiership games.
With both teams close the city centre, it’s also easy to mix the match with other attractions.
One of the famous landmarks of the city is Take Symphony Hall. It’s widely regarded as the finest concert hall in Europe. It’s the same with the Birmingham Hippodrome. A £35milion investment made it both the UK’s busiest theatre and helped lure Sadlers Wells Royal Ballet to become the Birmingham Royal Ballet. The city invested a large amount of funds into the cultural board which explains why the galleries, the gig venues and the buoyant theatres offer so much diverse quality.

Bristol is situated by the River Avon in South West England. With an approximate population of 410,950, and urban area of 550,200, it is England’s sixth, and the United Kingdom’s ninth most populous city, one of England’s core cities and the most populous city in South West England.

From its earliest days, Bristol’s fame and success has been linked to its commercial port, which was in the city centre but has now moved to the Severn Estuary coast at Avonmouth and Portbury.

In more recent years the economy has been built on the aerospace industry, and the city centre docks have been regenerated as a centre of heritage and culture. Bristol has suffered from severe damages from the bombing during the World War II, but the city has quickly recovered and restored the buildings and docklands. The city is nowadays the centre of culture, employment and education in the region.

Economy…

The city’s economy is reliant on the aerospace industry, the media, IT, Financial services and Tourism.

The aerospace industry in the South West directly employs large amount of people, and the Bristol area is at the heart of this. As well as the major names like Airbus and Rolls Royce, there are hundreds of smaller enterprises that have a vital role to play.

The financial services sector employs more than 40,000 people in the city. Bristol has the largest employment base in banking, finance and insurance services outside London. The IT sector is also important with more than 400 businesses based there, like Hewlett Packard.

Office Space Rental Levels…

Bristol office space saw an upswing of 6% over the past 12 months. Q1 take up in Bristol was well above the average for the same period over the last five years and more is expected over the coming period.

Bristol rates are at just under £28 per square foot, as per the annual market review from Knight Frank, and the occupancy rates are not falling at all.

The City centre take up for 2008 was 169,098 sq ft and 96,186 sq ft for out of town take up. The level of occupancy is high in both. This is all due to the demand for property and the growth of the legal and financial sector in Bristol and the surrounding area is fuelling a surge in office rentals.

Knight Franks’ latest Global Real Estate Market Annual Review places Bristol in fourth position in the English market after London, Birmingham and Manchester.

Transport…

Bristol is easy to reach either by air, train or car. Bristol International Airport is just 20 minutes’ drive south of the city. Taxis are available and a new non-stop bus service links the terminal to the downtown area. Bristol Temple Meads railway station is in the heart of the city and from here express trains go direct to London and elsewhere across the country. Bristol is also situated close to one of England’s main motorway intersections so the city is easily accessible by car.

The total distance from Bristol to London is 107 miles. Driving from Bristol to London would take approximately 1 hour, 56 minutes.

The Tourism, Attractiveness of the city…

Bristol is an exciting and intriguing city, post-industrial yet picturesque, which attract millions of visitors each year. Tourism in Bristol is an increasingly important part of the economy, and the city is the 7th most popular destination for foreign tourists, with 9 million tourists a year.

Bristol is a city rich in culture, tradition and entertainment. As well as the excellent city-centre bars and restaurants, Bristol has first-class shopping centres, art galleries, theatres and sporting venues. In addition, Bristol is uniquely placed close to the famous cities of Bath and Wells.

The city is famous for its music and film industries, and was a finalist for the 2008 European Capital of Culture.

The larger UK cities have a large range of serviced office space to offer and can easily fulfil all business requirements. However, it gets very difficult to find as much flexibility in smaller towns, due to a smaller choice of operators. Some UK business centres located in small towns have seen this gap in the market as an opportunity to launch a great hot desking campaign.

An increasing number of business centres are now offering hot desking suites services. This means that any businesses in need of office space, telephone and a wireless internet connection to rent on an hourly or daily basis, will not have to go to the nearest city anymore, but can actually find it in their own or surrounding towns.

This is now the case in Colburn, in Richmondshire. This business centre is now offering a hot desking service for only £5 per hour. So whether you mainly work “on the road” and need somewhere to check your emails or if you work from home and just need some quiet time and space, this service is definitely the option for you to consider. The business centre operator offers a unique environment, with quality office space, meeting and conference rooms, virtual office space, hot desking and administrative support on site.

Should you want to find out more or find hot desking and serviced office space near you, please contact SOS > Search Office Space on 0800 740 8080 or email sales@searchofficespace.com.
