Warehouses in Bristol are given a boost by political support

Bristol today became the centre of economic political activity when the Prime Minister and one of his key ministers made personal visits to the New Enterprise Zone in the City.

This support from Westminister will boost public moral, enhancing the effects of the enterprise zone therefore increasing demand for manufacturing premises in the Avonmouth area.

Colin Skellett, Chairman of the Local Enterprise Partnership, which had chosen Temple Quarter as the Enterprise Zone, said their presence was a clear acknowledgement of how important Bristol and the rest of the West of England was to the Government’s hopes of economic recovery.

With such importance placed on the area, Bristol can be seen as hotspot for future investment, and with so much economic activity planned distribution buildings look set to be in very high demand.

Bristol City Council Leader, Barbara Janke, supports this point by adding; “The Prime Minister’s visit sends out a very clear signal that the Temple Quarter Enterprise Zone is very much open for business. It is also recognition of the strong role Bristol and the West of England can play in driving economic growth.”
