SITUATIONThe property is situated on Twibell Street, approximately 3 miles east of the M1 accessed via the A628 and less than a half a mile from Barnsley town centre and railway station. The property’s central positioning and good transport links means the warehouse is very well located to serve not just the needs of local businesses but also businesses in the surrounding area.

The property also benefits from being in an established retail park location, in close proximity to other national occupiers, including Screwfix, Wickes, Hayes Fencing, B & M Bargains Store, Halfords and Argos.

DESCRIPTIONThe property comprises a self-contained Cash and Carry industrial warehouse arranged over ground and first floors measuring approximately 86,947 sq ft. The property is of steel portal frame construction with brick elevations surmounted by profile steel cladding beneath a corrugated roof.

The property has been fitted out to suit a Cash and Carry operator with a large open plan sales space, staff accommodation and storage/loading areas to ground floor with further staff and office accommodation alongside ancillary storage space to first floor. The external office extension to the south of the property is not currently used by the tenant.

The unit benefits from a large customer car park to the east along with the property’s service yard to the north, which are both accessed via a main vehicular entrance from Twibell Street leading directly to the car park. There are three electric up-and-over roller shutter doors which all provide access to the service area.


PRIVATE CLIENT

SITE AREAThe site provides an area of approximately 4.28 acres (1.73 Hectares) which represents a site cover of approximately 41%.

TENUREFreehold.

TENANCYThe property is let on a full repairing and insuring lease to Giant Booker Limited, t/a Booker Wholesale, for a term of 25 years from 28th February 2005, expiring on 28th February 2030, with a further guarantee to Giant Bidco Limited. The parent company of Booker Group plc is Tesco PLC.

COVENANT INFORMATIONFounded in 1835, Booker Group is the UK’s leading food wholesale with over 13,000 employees serving a total of 1.2 million customers across the UK and India. In January 2017, it was announced that the supermarket retailer Tesco had agreed to purchase the company for £3.7 billion – resulting in Britain’s biggest retailer combining with the country’s largest wholesaler. The sale is expected to result in a further growth of market share by the Booker brand and to add new capabilities to Tesco’s current offering.

The Booker Group comprises Booker Wholesale, Makro, Booker Direct, Classic Drinks, Ritter Courivaud, Chef Direct, Premier, Family Shopper, Budgens, Londis and Booker India. In the last few years The Booker Group has increased its delivery capabilities.

In the last few years The Brooker Group has notably enhanced their delivery division by highlighting this as an area of growth and gaining several significant contracts left vacant by the collapse of the incumbent wholesaler, Palmer & Harvey, in November 2017.

The company also founded, and was previously a sponsor of, the Booker Prize (originally the Booker–McConnell Prize) for literary fiction, which was established in 1968. Giant Booker Limited has reported the following financial information for the last three years:
