Schroders Capital’s UK Real Estate Fund (SCREF) has leased a store to Amazon Fresh at One Ruskin Square in Croydon.
The store occupies one of the retail units at the scheme adjacent to East Croydon station and Boxpark, offering a wide range of fresh produce, bakery items and freshly prepared meals.
Rob Cosslett, fund manager at Schroders Capital, said: “Croydon is gaining ground as a veritable tech hub, and we are pleased that Amazon has chosen Ruskin Square for its newest Amazon Fresh store. With the addition of high quality, convenience-led retail, Ruskin Square continues to deliver what modern office occupiers need from their workplaces.
“With growing demand to provide flexible, ESG driven working environments that deliver nearby amenities, public spaces and ease of access, Ruskin Square’s proposition is strong, and we anticipate continued interest from the occupier community as our commercial pipeline progresses.”
