Clowes Developments, a UK-based property investment and development company, has begun construction on new trade counter units at Stud Brook Business Park in Castle Donington, England.
Partnering with Roe Developments, the company is advancing the next phase of the business park after securing approval from North West Leicestershire District Council.

This new phase involves the development of five trade counters, a warehouse, and industrial units, each ranging from 3,229ft² to 4,606ft².
To be located on Plot 1 of the business park, the new units will be constructed around an operational Starbucks Drive-Thru and situated near a recently opened Sainsbury’s Local.
According to Clowes Developments, the site provides direct access via the Castle Donington bypass and offers significant parking facilities, making it a desirable site for potential tenants.
This development is part of a broader strategic plan aimed at expanding the park to cater mainly to trade counter operators.

Last month, Clowes Developments announced that phase one of Stud Brook Business Park had achieved practical completion. The initial phase featured industrial and distribution units ranging from 8,500ft² to 30,000ft².
The first-phase units have been handed over to various industry players, including Argon Medical and Bucher Municipal, who are completing their fit-outs with the aim of becoming fully operational by mid-2025.
