THE UK’s fastest growing IT distributor continues to expand at MEPC Chineham Park.
Micro-P, one of the longest-established and largest distributors of IT and technology products in the UK market, is taking an extra 6,000 sq ft at the Basingstoke business park.
This new acquisition follows on from Micro-P's move last year to larger office premises to accommodate their 31 per cent increase in staff. The company employs around 400 people mostly at its Chineham Park base.
Micro-P marketing director Paul Bryan, said: "Our successful growth strategy has accelerated the development of the company, and we needed extra space to house our expanded Mobile and Telco Division. Chineham Park has been our home since 1991 and we knew that we could work with MEPC to stay on the park.
“The obvious communication benefits, which make this location perfect for our business, are enhanced by the additional amenities for our staff on site."
The increased space will host a mobility showroom demonstrating leading mobile and accessories manufacturer products such as Nokia, Samsung, Blackberry and Tech21.
Chineham Park managing director Rupert Batho said: "Micro-P is one of the longest- established businesses here at Chineham Park, and in the past two years, we have seen this customer expand by 31 per cent and then again with this new building by a further 35 per cent.
“This exceptional growth shows how we, at MEPC, can help our customers accommodate their success.
“Micro-P's growth also highlights that Basingstoke and, Chineham Park specifically, offer an excellent environment for businesses to develop.”
