Latest lettings give Corby outlets to local businesses

Eddisons’ commercial agency office in Kettering has confirmed that it has secured two new retail occupiers, on new leases, for units in an established shopping district in Corby, Northamptonshire.

Acting on behalf of the landlord at Charter Court in the Oakley Vale District Centre in Corby, Eddisons has let Unit 14 and Unit 12 - both 700 sq ft retail premises - to Tanners Lane, a tanning salon, and Butterwick Bakery who bake and sell premium confectionery and sweet treats.

Tanners Lane has its original salon in Kettering and its new Charter Court premises - which will trade as ‘Tanners Lane Corby’ - gives the business a second Northamptonshire location.

Tanners Lane Corby is due to open in time for the high summer season, in 5 to 6 weeks, following a full salon fit out of the unit.

Butterwick Bakery is already open for business at its new Charter Court shop which chalks-up the eighth retail outlet in the East Midlands - including another Corby location on Rockingham Road - for this family-owned bakery business.

The bakery business was established in 2017 and was originally a home-kitchen based operation. But such has been the growth of the business since the pandemic, that it now employs over 60 members of staff across its regional chain of outlets which are all supplied by freshly baked goods from its large bakery in Corby.

Amanda Lawrence, Agency Surveyor at Eddisons, negotiated the leases for the two units and is now instructed to let two further units at Charter Court where the current occupier will be vacating.

Speaking about the recent lettings success at Charter Court, Amanda said, “The Oakley Vale District Centre is a well-established trading location that has a number of national and independent traders and service providers.

“It has solid footfall in attracting loyal local shoppers, as well as passing visitors to the area.

“To see the latest units we’ve let being occupied by growing local business is indicative of the ongoing success of retailers whose offer and in-person experience cannot be replicated online.”
