Working on behalf of Aldi, we identified a Homebase store as a potential site when it became part of a Company Voluntary Arrangement (CVA), providing the landlord with the option to secure vacant possession upon the activation of a Landlord break within a short time window.
Location
LONDON,
KIDBROOKE
PARK ROAD
PROPERTY SIZE
35,000 sq ft
Acting under extreme time pressure we secured an overriding lease on the entire property for Aldi that allowed the Landlord to activate the break clause and provided assurance on tenant demand for the space Aldi did not need, subsequently pre-letting the 35,000 sq ft remainder to B&M Stores, ensuring the comprehensive utilisation of the space.
A great example of our proficiency in navigating complex scenarios under pressure to create mutually beneficial arrangements for all parties.

Stripe Street approached the landlord in order to restructure onerous terms on a 67,000 sq ft Wickes in one of the most prominent locations in London, abutting the A406 North Circular Road.

We enabled Wickes to bring an over rented store into profitability.
Working on behalf of Aldi, we identified a planning-restricted retail/PFS development site on Edgware Road in Little Venice.
