Commerce House Opportunity to Make 2021 Successful

Commerce House in Middlesbrough has released new, exciting opportunities to snap up an office in the luxury business community where you can work safely, without the stress of home working with family.

The four available options include a five desk, an eight desk an 11 desk and a 12 desk office space, all which come ready to move into complete with furniture, high speed broadband, a fully maintained and serviced site which includes cleaning of the building, as well as communal areas and a manned reception.

The building which was refurbished to an extremely high standard just a few years ago is in the desirable TS1 postcode and provides virtual tenancy, hot desking and has a fabulous Business Lounge and Boardroom for meeting purposes.

Commerce House has its very own onsite facilities manager, Christine Huntington, who not only manages the team and the building, but also oversees the tenant’s requirements to ensure a seamless service. She said:

“Commerce House is simply a stunning building to run your business from for a fresh start in 2021. It has been likened to a five-star hotel due the quality of finish throughout the site, from entering Reception, Boardroom and communal areas such as the business lounge, kitchens, and WC’s. Our tenants all say how impressed their clients are and how it has given them a boost in productivity, making their companies even more successful.

“We have focused very much on the current guidelines to make the building safe, and have hand santiser, safety screens, signage and policies in place to protect tenants, visitors and staff. Because of that, and the fact that you have control over your private workplace behind your office door we are a sensible and safe choice for companies who don’t want to work from home as it isn’t viable or sensible for their business performance.”

In the heart of Middlesbrough, Commerce House is a well-established building with lots of parking opportunities around it, situated right next to the train station, therefore ideal location for commuting.

Meeting space, which is for use by tenants and outside companies that can be pre-book, includes the fabulous Chairman’s Board Room and small meeting areas which are set up and laid out with social distancing in mind. Christine concluded:

“This is a very rare opportunity to snap up an office space that is as safe as working from home. We have had great interest with an office going just this week, and they won’t be around for long, so if you are interested, please do get in touch on 01642 917116 to arrange a socially distanced, private viewing as soon as possible!”

BYD announces voestalpine as major supplier to its first European car factoryAustrian company will produce steel for plant in Szeged, Hungary Facility will be ready to start manufacturing vehicles by end of 2025 Regional supply base key to policy of localised production New V2H pilot project also confirmed for Austria BYD, the world’s leading manufacturer of new-energy vehicles, is pleased to announce that it has reached agreement with voestalpine, a globally leading steel and technology group, to supply its new passenger-car factory in Hungary. Confirmed by BYD Executive Vice President Stella Li in Vienna, alongside voestalpine CEO Herbert Eibensteiner, the agreement covers sheet steel, and makes voestalpine one of the first confirmed supply partners for the Szeged facility. The company was chosen by BYD because of its geographical proximity to the factory in Hungary, and the high quality and excellent reputation of Austrian steel. The agreement marks a significant step in BYD’s localisation policy, as the brand continues to expand its operations across Europe. BYD will be on sale in 29 European countries by the end of 2025, and its sales network will comprise more than 1000 retail stores. In addition, BYD recently committed to a new European headquarters in Budapest, along with its first bespoke European R&D centre, also in Hungary. The announcement of voestalpine as a supplier demonstrates how BYD is committed to sourcing high-quality, competitive local suppliers to support its stated goal of producing cars in Europe, for Europe. It continues to meet with hundreds of potential suppliers in key markets as it ramps up preparations for the start of European production. BYD Executive Vice President Stella Li commented: “BYD has always been clear that we have come to Europe to stay in Europe – and to produce here. Our commitment to the European market is strong and as we’re showing here, it goes far beyond pure car sales. We’re applying a long-term vision here, with the goal of being seen by consumers, within the next five years, as a European manufacturer. Our factory in Hungary is at the heart of this process, of course, so every local supplier we announce is another significant step. I’m delighted that we will be working with voestalpine, a company that has a long history of innovation and a commitment to decarbonisation and sustainable CO2 reduction.” Herbert Eibensteiner, CEO voestalpine, said: “With its high-quality steel products, voestalpine is an important partner for the global automotive industry. We offer renowned automotive manufacturers and suppliers reliable and sustainable solutions, thanks to our unique combination of technology and materials expertise. Our products can be found in almost all automotive assemblies – from the body and powertrain to safety-critical components. Starting this fall, we will be supplying BYD – a Chinese technology company that manufactures in Europe – from our location in Linz. We are confident that this initial order for the production of high-quality flat steel for car bodies and outer panels will lay the foundation for a long-term partnership.” BYD has been enjoying strong progress in Austria, becoming the number one brand with private BEV buyers (and enjoying a 15% share of that market). Its overall market share in the country now sits at 2.5%. To further support this success, BYD has also announced that Austria will become the European Union pilot market for the implementation of V2H (Vehicle to Home) technology in its vehicles. Austria has been chosen for this project, which will be managed in conjunction with a local partner, because of the country’s high penetration of solar energy (more than half of all Austrian households are supplied with solar-panel energy). Customer demand is also strong, with BYD dealerships reporting that half of customers are already asking when V2H will become available, to help them maximise the efficiency of solar and reduce their energy costs. More specific details of the project, including a timeline, will be announced shortly.
