Hawley Group — the energy efficiency expert offering consultancy and contracting services to the property sector — has expanded its footprint with the opening of a new office, as the firm pushes for £30m turnover in 2024.

Now occupying Unit 1 at Woodvale Workshops in Brighouse, located next to the former 1800s silk mill Woodvale Office Park, the lease represents the third expansion for the company in the area, in under two years — all of which are managed by Towngate Plc, one of the North’s leading commercial and industrial property specialists.

Spanning 1,846 sq ft, the new unit benefits from a reception/lobby area and ancillary office accommodation, kitchen, and WCs. With a loading door providing direct access to the workshop, as well as a loading/yard area and parking, Hawley Group is well equipped to expand its mechanical and electrical engineering capabilities on-site.

“We’re delighted to be further expanding our offices with Towngate,” said Andrew Hawley, managing director, Hawley Group. “A deep-rooted passion for sustainability and proven industry expertise have driven the business over the last 13 years, landing us a position as one of the fastest-growing companies in the Leeds City Region. The additional office and warehouse space cements this position even further, allowing us to enhance our customer experience at the same time.”

“With plans to open up our meeting rooms for other local businesses too, we’re excited to show off our amazing space and let others enjoy it — hopefully as much as we do.”

Having initially taken a single suite on the second storey of Parkview House, situated within Woodvale Office Park, Hawley Group further expanded into the entirety of the same floor in mid-2022. One year later, the team occupied the ground floor too, with this latest addition taking the combined size of the office spaces to approximately 8,346 sq ft.

Julia Ford, marketing manager at Towngate Plc, added: “It has been a pleasure to be able to provide additional accommodation to Hawley Group to assist with their expansion plans. Woodvale has made an excellent base for a number of businesses, due to its proximity to the motorway network and arterial routes, along with the added advantage of generous parking and the abundance of local amenities.”

The property, which forms part of the Woodvale Workshops, is already home to ACC Flooring Limited and Brighouse Flooring Co Limited.
