Plant-Ex signs for fourth unit at Indurent Park Avonmouth
Indurent REIT, one of the UK’s leading logistics developers and managers, has let a 43,000 sq ft unit to ingredients production company Plant-Ex at Indurent Park Access 18 Avonmouth.
Plant-Ex will use the property to create a Centre of Excellence in product development and technical support, as well as increasing capacity in flavour compounding and savoury flavours. This allows for greater proactive customer interaction as Plant-Ex moves towards an increasingly consultative role with its existing and future customer base.
Indurent has been working with Plant-Ex since its formation in 2010, and supported its growth as a leading international, family-owned company specialising in the manufacture of natural colours, flavours and extracts used in food production. Co-founder Giles Drewett formed Plant-Ex in a 2,500 sq ft unit at Indurent Park Avonmouth, and has subsequently expanded at the park, employing more than 100 people across its business and generating annual revenues of approximately £25m.
