Office space has been in high demand throughout 2018 and has not showed any signs of slowing down going into 2019.

This is mostly attributable to thriving industry in Manchester, with a particular focus on the advanced manufacturing, digital and technology, and professional services sectors. Manchester has also recently been recognised as the UK’s tech capital outside London.
