Hermes moves into new warehouse just five days after making enquiry
Industrial asset management specialist NSM has let an additional unit to global logistics firm Hermes - with the deal from initial enquiry to occupation taking just five days.
As demand for logistic and industrial space grows during the covid-19 crisis, NSM was initially approached by Hermes with a speculative enquiry on Monday April 27 for expansion space at the Vector 31 Industrial Park, close to Junction 31 of the M1.

Hide AdA viewing was arranged, and Head of Terms were finalised within 24 hours. The lease was agreed and signed a day later with Hermes taking occupation of the 11,650 sq. ft unit on Friday May 1.
NSM Managing Director Nicky Jones said: “Demand for quality logistics and industrial space is huge at the moment but even in our most optimistic moment we never thought we would be able to deliver a deal like this in such a tight timeframe. I am incredibly proud of the NSM team and our partners for making a 5-day turnaround possible, it really shows how agile our business is.
“We are obviously delighted to assist a current tenant and we have also been able to offer flexible leasing terms that suit their current business demands.”
