Bruntwood, the North of England property group, is enjoying a busy start to the year after securing four new lettings at the Cotton Exchange in Liverpool’s commercial district.

Lettings totalling 6,100 sq ft of office space have been agreed with HH Law, iProgress, Medicals Direct and MJP Justice at the Grade II listed building.

Medicals Direct, a health service provider to the insurance sector, has taken a 1,000 sq ft office on the building's fifth floor. The company has also let a 3,000 sq ft suite in Bruntwood's St Christopher House property in Stockport. Personal injury specialist HH Law has signed a three-year lease on a 700 sq ft refurbished office.

Web design company iProgress is moving into a 400 sq ft suite on the sixth floor of the building, upgrading from a 200 sq ft office. Law firm, MJP Justice is also doubling its space in the Cotton Exchange, expanding from 2,000 sq ft to 4,000 sq ft. Both leases are for three- years.

Colin Forshaw, head of sales at Bruntwood, said: "These new lettings mark another great start to the year for Bruntwood and we are pleased to welcome such a wide range of businesses into the Cotton Exchange.

"The building remains one of our most popular properties and we've worked closely with our tenants to ensure they have the type and size of suite that they need. Lettings to companies such as Medicals Direct highlight the flexibility that Bruntwood offers in allowing customers to move seamlessly within our buildings as their business requirements change and they look to up or downsize."

Paul Hampson, director at HH Law, said: "The Cotton Exchange was the perfect location for our business because it's crucial for us to be located at the centre of the commercial district and legal community, close to clients, the courts and partners."

Bruntwood, which owns nine major office buildings in Liverpool city centre, including Oriel Chambers and flagship building, The Plaza, specialises in flexible leases across its property portfolio. Bruntwood offers offices from 200 sq ft upwards with flexible letting lengths and suite specification.
