Axis J9 is being built in three phases with phase two comprising 7 smaller units (3,400 – 6,100 sq ft) for sale or to lease, 5 of which are already ‘under offer’, completion in mid-2020. with Phase 3 providing buildings to suit occupier’s and company’s requirements from between 75,000 sq ft and 250,000 sq ft and will be available for sale or on leases.

Simon Parsons, Albion Land said: “Bicester’s excellent location on the London to Birmingham M40 and close to Oxford renowned for its Bicester Village is well respected and we are in discussions with many companies needing high spec distribution and production space with significant combined rent and business rates savings compared to similar south east buildings. We can also sell buildings to owner occupiers/companies in Phase 2 and 3”.

Chris White, MD White Commercial says “This is yet another excellent development by Albion Land along the M40 Corridor supporting the development and expansion of business and the Oxfordshire economy following on from their recent successful business parks schemes in Bicester link9.co.uk  and Brackley  albionland.co.uk - where we were instrumental in the success of the schemes”.
