Strong confidence by SMEs in the West Kent economy is evident after most of the industrial units at Nepicar Park, on the A20 near Wrotham, were sold prior to completion of the development.

In February 2015 Gallagher Properties secured planning permission to develop 15 industrial warehouse units totaling 42,000ft², close to Junction 2a of the M26.

Nick Yandle of Gallagher Properties, which is part of the Maidstone based Gallagher Group said: “It is a fantastic achievement to have nearly all the units sold prior to completion of the project, only 18 months from securing planning permission.

“It clearly shows that there is demand for well-designed, high specification and well located industrial units that are close to the motorways in Kent.
