SPEAKING THE LANGUAGE OF LETTING

AN INTERNATIONAL translation company has moved into new premises in Nottingham city centre in a deal secured by property agents Innes England and FHP.

EVS Translations will be moving to Regent Street in the city centre as part of its programme of expansion.

The company, which has more than 100 in-house translators, proofreaders, project managers, DTP and IT experts across Europe and America, carries out over 20,000 translation and interpretation assignments each year.

With its head office in Germany, the UK hosts the largest international operation of EVS Translations Group. Other sites include Paris, France, Sofia, Bulgaria and Atlanta, USA, completing the group’s global reach. The UK branch of EVS Translations has now expanded its operation into much larger premises to manage its growth plans for the coming years.

Gregg Babbs, business development manager of EVS Translations, said: “We are very pleased to have found the right central location.

“We are one of the leading international translation companies in the UK market. Due to our continued success, we needed a larger office to house all of our existing employees, but also an office that can accommodate our growth.”

The beautiful Georgian building is Grade II listed and falls within the Canning Circus Conservation Area. Spanning across four floors, there’s plenty of office space, storage and kitchen facilities. The car park, which is accessed on nearby Oxford Street offers at least five parking spaces. But for those without cars, the property is a short walk from the city’s shopping centre and a range of public transport links. 

Giles Davis of Innes England said: “EVS Translations came to us looking for bigger premises with office facilities, but they were still keen to remain in the city.

“Regent Street is a fantastic location, with beautiful buildings, and with five parking spaces around the back of the property, it’s ideal for a business that needs to be in a professional environment with easy access for its clients.”

Mark Tomlinson of FHP Property Consultants, said: “This letting follows a number of leasehold transactions in this area resulting in a sharp reduction in availability, only three months ago there were five buildings available to let on Regent Street, and there is now only one.  The reason? These buildings, which were once out of the price range of many local occupiers, are now affordable to many and companies are finding that you can now get a lot for your money.”
