Bishop’s Move has relocated its Portsmouth branch to new purpose-built industrial premises in Pioneer Park.

Pioneer Park is located on Portfield Road and forms part of the established Airport Industrial Estate. The branch has easy access to both the A27/M27 and the city centre.

The new building comprises a shell fit-out with 9.6m height eaves, full height electric loading doors and even a renewable electricity supply using solar panels.

Stuart Jacobs, Bishop’s Move Solent Branch Manager said, “It seemed a daunting task to relocate from the old offices, particularly considering the sheer amount of storage containers to move, all in the space of two weeks. It was also the busiest two weeks for the branch year to date. However, all staff involved with the project worked tirelessly throughout, not only to ensure the relocation was completed on time, but that our customer focus was not compromised in any way. This process gave me the opportunity to look upon things from a different perspective and gain an understanding of how our clients feel when relocating premises and the challenges they face.”
