Workplace furniture company opens Midlands hub

A South Wales-based workplace and education furniture company has opened up a Midlands and North England office in Birmingham, thanks to commercial property agents Siddall Jones.

BOF has taken the recently-refurbished ground floor commercial offices at 101 Albion Street in The Jewellery Quarter. The new workplace hub of 1,716 sq ft will be used by Midlands account manager Max Fowler and BOF’s support team to grow the company’s business in the region and the north of England.

Managing director Michael Parrish said: “BOF has over 30 years’ experience as a furniture specialist within the education, public and private sectors, and we decided in the latter part of 2019 that we needed a workplace hub in the Midlands.

“Birmingham, with its connections straight into the national motorway network, was the obvious choice for a new showroom and office and we were able to find the perfect premises through Siddall Jones.”

Ed Siddall-Jones said: “The letting to BOF further proves the insatiable demand for quality character space within The Jewellery Quarter. Siddall Jones was originally involved in the sale of the property to Raglan Homes and was subsequently retained by the developer to advise on the commercial agency."

Raglan Homes were advised by Hadgkiss Hughes & Beale while Berry Smith Lawyers represented BOF.
