BPP Snaps Up Latest Spot At Reading Central

National training company BPP has signed for premium office space at One Reading Central.

Acting on behalf of SWIP (Scottish Widows Investment Partnership) and Kier, national commercial property consultancy Hanover Green has let part of One Reading Central to UK training company BPP.

BPP has taken 6,880 sq ft on the first floor of the property at £30 per sq ft on a 15 year lease.

Prompted by a lease end, the company is relocating from Aquis House on Blagrave Street in Reading to One Reading Central on Forbury Road, Reading. BPP chose One Reading Central because of its status and proximity to the station.

BPP offers professional education and has been preparing clients for professional bodies examinations for over 35 years. The Reading site is one of the company’s UK-wide study centres. The centre offers a full range of exam-focused courses taught by a dedicated lecturing team in classes of no more than 45 people.

The deal follows the recent fourth floor letting of One Reading Central to PWC who acquired 22,584 sq ft on a 10 year lease in July this year, also at £30 per sq ft.

Other occupiers in the property include digital service provider Hibu and Pegasystems.

There is still space to let or rent at One Reading Central: 10,400 sq ft on the first floor and 22,500 sq ft on the second floor.
