I was first introduced to the team at Glorious Logistix in May of this year. They wanted to renew the lease of their warehouse in Harlow, but discussions with the landlord’s agent had reached a bit of an impasse.

The market had moved significantly since they first took on the warehouse 5 years ago and they were facing an 80% increase in the rent.  A massive increase, alongside all the other increased costs of running a business.

They asked if The Lease Negotiator could represent them in negotiations and to negotiate a more favourable deal than the one that was being offered.

With the last quarter being the busiest time of year for Glorious Logistix, limited alternative properties available and all the evidence pointing to a sizeable uplift in the rent, negotiations were always going to be tough.

However, I am pleased to report that we were able to negotiate significant savings for our client of over £75,000, whilst managing to also agree a more tenant friendly lease.

Philip Moores a Director of Glorious Logistix commented “We aren’t property experts and it became clear early on in our lease renewal negotiations that we needed expert help. Jonathan was definitely that expert. He’s a pleasure to work with, never making us feel like we’d asked a stupid question, and always taking time to explain things. He did a great job for us and we’d recommend him very highly.“
