Newmark has been appointed as joint sale and letting agent alongside Savills at the Advanced Manufacturing Innovation District Scotland (AMIDS).

The 52-hectare district, which is located adjacent to Glasgow Airport, forms part of the Glasgow City Region City Deal and is being delivered by AMIDS (Renfrewshire), a joint venture between Renfrewshire Council and Buccleuch Property.

The scheme will offer development plots and commercial space intended to attract advanced manufacturing, engineering and high-tech occupiers from across the UK and overseas.

Josh Thomas, development manager at AMIDS (Renfrewshire), said: “AMIDS is a long-term partnership to deliver sustainable growth for Renfrewshire and the wider Glasgow City Region. Newmark’s expertise will help turn that vision into new occupiers, new investment and tangible benefits for local people and businesses.”

Paul Broad, partner at Newmark, added: “Being appointed as both sale and letting agent for AMIDS enables Newmark to take a comprehensive approach to the occupier strategy in the interest of the client. The scale of this flagship development makes it one of the most important for Scotland’s advanced manufacturing sector, and the district gives occupiers the chance to sit alongside leading research institutions, a skilled workforce and established supply chains in a highly connected location. Interest from prospective tenants is already building.”

The wider project team includes Tweed Property, Halliday Fraser Munro, PMP, Civic, Harley Haddow and Turley.
