Toys R Us kicks off at Riverside

Toys R Us, the rapidly expanding toy retailer, has signed up for 44,000 sq ft of retail warehouse space at the £75m Riverside Business Park, Wilford, Nottingham. The £4m design-and-build deal, which involves Toys R Us taking a 999-year lease on the property, is the first to be completed at the park.

Wilson Bowden Properties is developing the 74-acre commercial and retail centre in partnership with Powergen on the site of the former Wilford power station, close to the River Trent on the outskirts of Nottingham. Construction has begun with work on groundworks and infrastructure, involving additional road access, now under way.

The Toys R Us store is set to open in September. Other prospective tenants reportedly include a large DIY store and several industrial and retail companies. Agents are Edward Erdman.
