Allen Signs, with offices in Lincoln and Nottingham, has celebrated the completion of another successful project at the opening of a new business development on Teal Park
Commissioned by North Kesteven District Council, Allen Signs of Lincoln and Nottingham won the work following a competitive tender for Blackwood Court. The development is the latest addition to the 87ha Teal Park site, home to engineering outfit Siemens.
The district council has invested £2m in Blackwood Court which is aimed at small start-up businesses. Allen Signs have given the business park a stylish logo featuring three oak trees.
Glen Merryweather, sales, marketing, and business development of Allen Signs, says: “Our in-house graphic designer developed some creative ideas which we presented to the client.
Once construction work on site got under way we revised our initial concepts to ensure that the design and materials used reflected the style of the buildings as well as the name”
"Once construction work on site got under way we revised our initial concepts to ensure that the design and materials used reflected the style of the buildings as well as the name. We’ve really enjoyed being involved in the project from the early stages and following it through to completion.”
The development has attracted interest from a range of businesses from engineering and joinery through to a photographic studio, with a mix of new start-ups relocating and expanding businesses. All but two have now been let. North Kesteven is a predominantly rural area but has seen a rapid increase in population as new people move into an area that lies just 100 miles from London.
