Demand & Supply Report – 8 March 2013
1 Introduction
1.1 Background
Plymouth City Council (PCC) owns 3.09 ha of development land at Langage Science Park and is
considering the delivery of speculative employment space. It is anticipated that the overall site will be
delivered in a number of phases with the first phase being circa 2,787 sq m (30,000 sq ft) and split into a
number of smaller units.
1.2 Brief
To support the scheme, PCC have brought in the services of Jones Lang LaSalle as an external firm of
commercial surveyors, who are active in the local market to:
1) Interpret the brief and preferred outcomes;
2) Inform current market conditions and trends;
3) Analyse and specifically comment upon levels of supply within the Plymouth market of land and
buildings;
4) Analyse and specifically comment upon levels of demand within the Plymouth market of land and
buildings;
5) Provide an indication of likely rental and capital values together with investment yields and anticipated
voids;
6) Engage with and collate the view of Plymouth Chamber of Commerce.
7) Provide Conclusions and Recommendations.
We note that this project is confidential at this stage and should not be communicated to any third party.

Demand & Supply Report – 8 March 2013
2 Employment Land & Buildings Market Background
2.1 Local Market Review
2.1.1 The Plymouth industrial market has developed over the past 50 years largely around a manufacturing
base, utilising lower labour costs than other parts of the UK and traditional skills emanating from the
Devonport Royal Dockyard.
2.1.2 In the 1960’s and 1970’s, Plymouth was able to secure investment from many foreign, high-tech
manufacturing companies and these were largely located close to public sector housing, from where the
majority of the labour force was drawn. From the late 1990’s, there has been consolidation within the
manufacturing sector Plymouth. The industrial property landscape has adapted and some of it diversified
into service-related or distribution uses. In some cases, a lack of demand has resulted in manufacturing
sites being considered or developed for alternative uses including residential and retail (although it is
acknowledged that many of these industrial sites / units had reached the end of their economic life, were
not particularly attractive to the needs of modern businesses and unviable for conversion or
redevelopment).
2.1.3 The industrial market in Plymouth comprises approximately 185,000 sq m (20 million sq ft) of built space.
This extends from areas within Ivybridge close to the city’s eastern boundary, to Belliver in the north and
Ernesettle to the west. Lee Mill at Ivybridge and parts of Langage are within South Hams and not PCC.
2.1.4 Langage is to the eastern side of Plymouth, we have not included commentary or analysis on the
employment market within south east Cornwall and in particular Saltash.
2.1.5 We have included a map in Appendix 1 showing Plymouth’s key employment estates that contain
manufacturing or distribution floor space. Langage forms one of these established, commercial estates.
2.1.6 Langage has very good accessibility to the A38 Devon Expressway and the estate has been developed
successfully since the mid 1980’s. The floor space is therefore more modern than that found on the other
older estates and comprises a mixture of manufacturing and distribution floor space.
Estover Industrial Estate is another popular estate being central to the city and close to a large labour
catchment. The other, significant estates are Belliver, Ernesettle, and Burrington Way, which mainly have
larger, manufacturing style buildings.
2.1.7 Trade counter / quasi-retail activity are found at other locations like Newnham, Parkway, Valley Road and
Cattedown. Langage is not regarded by operators as a trade counter location.
2.1.8 Plymouth has a large population of 255,000 and therefore there are employment premises that are
involved with business that serves / distributes to that population. The size of the population which is likely
to grow over time will also place pressure on the need for jobs and consequently the need for a supply of
high quality business space.
2.1.9 It is recognised that Exeter provides competition in terms of capturing logistical demand with its enhanced,
geographical position. This being at the intersection of the M5 and A30 together with its closer proximity to
national distribution hubs. The majority of distribution demand will therefore focus on Exeter and not
Plymouth. However, Plymouth does house a number of niche, distribution businesses.
2.1.10 Cornwall continues to benefit from grant assistance through the ERDF Convergence Programme. This
financial incentive together with the new Enterprise Zone at Newquay is more likely to attract larger
footloose companies but the local market and smaller businesses within and around Plymouth are unlikely

to be attracted to this Enterprise Zone. This therefore provides an opportunity to provide premises for
expanding local companies, new business start ups and potentially inward investment.
2.1.11 To assess the potential demand for the subject development, we have concentrated our analysis of the
Employment Property Market around Classes B1c, B2 and B8 of Use Classes Order 1987, which
comprise light industrial, general industrial and warehousing / distribution classes of use known collectively
as ‘industrial’. We have excluded consideration of offices (Class B1a) because Langage is not a traditional
office location and that office development provided at the far western end of the original estate represents
a very small % of the overall floor space found on the estate. The other pure B Class Use we have also
excluded is R&D (Class B1b), which represents a very small section of the employment market in this
area, and that R&D which does exist is largely found within the Science Park in northern Plymouth.
We have specifically analysed the industrial floor space at Langage (using Valuation Office Agency Data),
that is both within the industrial estate and Science Park. The graph below shows the breakdown and
make-up of the existing built space.
Our observations are that:
Langage includes 1.3 million sq ft of industrial floor space, contained within a total of 67 buildings.
There are no buildings below 2,000 sq ft in size
A third of the total floor space is contained within just four buildings (see graph below)

Demand & Supply Report – 8 March 2013
3 Supply
3.1 Employment Buildings
3.1.1 The Plymouth Commercial Property Register shows a list of the industrial and office floor space that is
currently available in the Plymouth employment market. This document is produced by PCC. We are able
to list all of the available buildings in the Plymouth area at December 2012 over 139 sq m (1,500 sq ft)
within Appendix 2.
3.1.2 The supply level of existing floor space as at December 2012 is 92,051 sq m (989,355 sq ft). This total
equates to approximately 5% of the total estimated floor space that exists in the Plymouth market – so put
another way 95% of Plymouths industrial and office space is successfully let or occupied. This level of
availability is lower than it has been over the past three years and compares to Exeter (2.5%) and Torbay /
Teignbridge (4.5%).
There have been continued waves of manufacturing consolidation since 1999 and the economic downturn
started to hit in 2008. These factors have seen supply levels rise and consistently be, over the last ten
years, at or in excess of 92,900 sq m (1 Million sq ft) – although it is acknowledged that the total supply
figure has included few new build / modern facilities by volume. This is especially in the medium size
range (5,000 – 15,000 sq ft). Clearly PCC’s proposal will help plug this gap in the market.
3.1.3 Appendix 2 shows a good mix of size options, a good geographical mix of locations around Plymouth, and
also a real breadth of quality for those occupiers actively looking for property to consider.
3.1.4 Looking at the supply of buildings in the market, it is evident that there are few new-build modern options
available. This has largely been because of the reduction in public sector grant assistance and developer
caution over the past 5 years.
3.1.5 It is evident that in the current economic climate, the private sector will continue to fail to deliver new
employment buildings. This is as a direct result of market failure (i.e. the cost of developing the buildings is
higher than the market value of the finished product). This ‘gap’ makes the development unviable in the
short to medium term and PCC’s proactive approach and ability to take a longer term view helps overcome
this issue.
3.2 Employment Land
3.2.1 Our assessment of known employment land supply in Plymouth and those sites within SHDC’s area being
Lee Mill and Broadley Park is detailed within Appendix 3. This includes land that would accommodate
industrial style development. We have therefore excluded land that is only suitable for office or R&D use.
This shows that there is a total of 83.05 hectares (205 acres) currently serviced, consented, committed,
allocated or suitable within the Plymouth area. The supply figure of 83.05 hectares includes the 3.09
hectares which form the subject site.
3.2.2 We have also analysed the data within Appendix 3 from a locational perspective to see where it is
concentrated. This forms the table below:

3.2.3 The ‘Others’ section includes the proposed 18 hectares within the planned new settlement, Sherford.
3.2.4 The table in 3.2.2 above shows that the available supply is spread across the whole of the Plymouth area.
The supply at Langage Industrial Estate and Langage Energy Park totals 8.61 hectares, reflecting 10% of
the total for the Plymouth area. Around half of the land quoted above could be regarded as deliverable
within a short term timescale. The ownership of the land is mixed between the private sector and public
sector (mostly Plymouth City Council).
3.2.5 As stated in 3.1.4 and 3.1.5, the private sector is going to be reluctant to develop its landholdings and
therefore the only land that will be delivered is likely to be that controlled by the public sector. In this case
PCC have clearly identified this development opportunity at Langage as a high priority over its other sites.
Of the total land supply, we estimate that PCC control 23.44 hectares.

Demand & Supply Report – 8 March 2013
4 Demand
4.1 Employment Buildings
4.1.1 It is difficult if not impossible to predict the demand for new industrial and commercial premises as the
market is complex and vulnerable to fluctuations in the wider economy.
4.1.2 Nevertheless, we believe a valuable way to identify and quantify historic demand is to review actual take-
up. Take-up is individual property lettings or sales of existing space or new builds for occupational use.
For this reason, we have collated the transactions of properties for 2012 and set these out within Appendix
4. This list includes properties, larger than 1,500 sq ft falling within uses Class B1c, B2 and B8 that were
sold or leased in the calendar year. This information has been collated through our market intelligence
and industry data records. PCC or SHDC do not keep records of take-up of existing or new floor space.
4.1.3 Whilst, it is appreciated that this is not an official list of all of the transactions that have occurred within
Plymouth, it provides an indication of the level of real demand and a resultant rate of take – up of industrial
employment floor space. The total for 2012 is estimated at 61,718 sq m (664,310 sq ft).
4.1.4 The sale of the Toshiba factory at Ernesettle (383,840 sq ft) dominates the figures and we note that that
property has been purchased by a developer for energy use, and not primarily for occupational use by a
manufacturer or distributor. The buildings have been demolished and it has been branded as the Plymouth
Energy Park. The other significant deal was the assignment of the lease on the former Quadra Foods
building on Langage (60,064 sq ft). We have included it because it technically involved a new occupier.
4.1.5 Focusing on occupier take-up and therefore removing the Toshiba factory deal, the revised figure for 2012
is 26,058 sq m (280,470 sq ft). This smaller accommodation (below 225 sq m) that transacted was mainly
accommodation built post 2000 and the premises above this was older second-hand space dating from
1970’s.– In terms of the geographical spread of transactions, Langage produced with 5 of the 28 recorded
deals.
4.1.6 It is also evident that a large proportion of the 2012 take-up and current demand is for manufacturing uses
rather than distribution use. This job creation is welcomed as it tends to be higher in terms of job per floor
space density than distribution. Also the job security is better as the distribution companies work off
contracts and therefore cannot commit for period over 3-5 years. We have seen a reduction in
warehousing demand as manufacturers are making to order and then shipping rather than creating ‘stock
piles’ of finished goods.
4.1.7 Technological developments and improvements have reduced requirements for PCC, Plymouth NHS and
Land Registry to have storage facilities, which accounted for a significant proportion of warehousing space
in the Plymouth area. The consolidation of premises at Burrington Way by the Land Registry is an
example of this trend.
4.1.8 In respect of Class B8 demand, we have stated in section 2 that the distribution occupiers (not trade
counter) do not regard Plymouth as a location to cover the South West peninsular and mainly as place to
purely service its immediate population.
4.1.9 In terms of all live demand for buildings above 1,500 sq ft, we estimate that around 40% is currently from
the distribution / warehousing sector (Class B8), 50% from light industrial sector (Class B1c) and 10% for
general industrial space (Class B2).
4.1.10 It has become expensive to service land for development. As a result, many development projects in the
short – medium term will be unviable and will require public sector assistance or cross-subsidy from higher
value uses. Without public sector intervention by way of speculative development , then occupiers will
have to revert to / rely on the recycling of existing second-hand floor space. This proposed floor space will

Demand & Supply Report – 8 March 2013
provide additional options for both the live and latent market demand. The servicing of the adjoining land
parcels may make it more attractive for other occupiers as the site will have been partially developed.
National and regional companies mainly prefer leasehold options so as to minimise capital expenditure
and maximise flexibility. Most tenants on medium-sized properties are offering a maximum commitment of
five years and we are seeing three year occupier requirements on smaller properties – although it is
possible for longer terms to be agreed but break clauses may need to be incorporated.
The City has seen small pockets of successful development over the last decade including Sisna Park on
Estover, where industrial buildings were speculatively completed between 2008-2011 to suit the smaller
owner-occupier market. The scheme comprised approximately 78,000 sq ft of accommodation made up of
31 buildings which are now 100% let or sold. This created rental and capital value evidence of up to £75
per sq m per annum and £995 sq m respectively.
4.2 Employment Land
4.2.1 An effective way to identify historic demand is to review actual completions. Completions, occur when
land has been delivered / built on utilising an existing planning consent.
4.2.2 PCC’s Annual Monitoring Report does not detail the take up / completions site by site of employment land.
It has, though, provided a bar chart from its Core Strategy document (section 6.1) which indicates the
‘Employment Land Delivered 2006 – 2012’. The chart indicates that between 2006 and 2011, there have
been 25.78 hectares of employment land delivered. We believe that none of this total was attributable to
sites on Langage and therefore it has been some time since there have been new-build opportunities on
the estate.
4.2.3 The South Hams Annual Monitoring Report (SHAMR indicates that in the period from 2006 to 2011, the
completions of employment land at Langage (within their district) totalled 1.83 hectares.
4.2.4 Taking the figures contained within 4.2.2 and 4.2.3 above, we can calculate that the take up / completions
of employment land in the wider Plymouth area in the five years from 2006 to 2011 to be 27.61 hectares,
reflecting 5.52 hectares per annum.
4.2.5 The annual delivery has dropped off in recent years, as the recession has taken hold, and there is
therefore limited private sector or other competition to what is proposed at Langage by PCC. Any
development, which completes in say mid 2014, may find a marginally improved economy and higher
occupier confidence levels.

every five years of lease term commitment.
5.1.3 In terms of initial yields that would be applied to rental income streams with local / regional covenants on
lease terms of five to ten years would be between 8.5% and 9.5%. These yields are expressed as net

6 Economic Development
6.1 Plymouth Chamber of Commerce
6.1.1 We have spoken with David Parlby of Plymouth Chamber of Commerce in respect of the Plymouth
employment market and specifically PCC’s proposal to construct speculatively buildings at Langage. The
key comments from David were:
There is not enough modern space available in the market.
Need to build to serve the ‘latent’ demand.
New supply will stimulate a key market sector being light industrial / manufacturing.
Langage has good access and accessibility to the north east via the A38 Devon Expressway.
Need to cater for smaller manufacturing companies (<50 staff) who have high growth potential who
use modern techniques and need cleaner space.
Important that businesses have the opportunity to expand on site rather than relocate.
Need also to cater for ‘start-up’ businesses with 1-5 staff.
Consider creative industries that tend to draw from a rural based workforce.
High levels of car parking are important because of the wider labour catchment and limited public
transport offer.
Important to provide super-fast broadband directly to the buildings.
Important to provide support services nearby to reduce the feeling of being isolated.
Provide property that is easy to sign up for with no barriers.
It is important that these buildings are marketed effectively and correctly with the right level of
resources to attract both local and Inward Investment.
6.2 Plymouth Manufacturer’s Group
We have received summary points from the PMG Members Sites & Premises Survey 2012, which are:
20% of firms feel that their current premises inhibit their firm’s growth or development.
Key reasons (for constraint) include: poor design/layout; split site and poor energy efficiency.
35% of those surveyed anticipated problems with moving – over half cited ‘not being able to find the
right premises’ as their main concern.
Perceptions re the supply of sites – of those offering a comment, 70% feel that the supply of sites is
either: ‘inadequate; inappropriately located and/or priced’.

Demand & Supply Report – 8 March 2013
7 Conclusions & Recommendations
7.1 Conclusions
7.1.1 Langage is a well established commercial location with very good access to the A38 Devon Expressway. It
is significant in terms of Plymouth’s employment stock and contains approximately 1.3 million sq ft of
existing industrial style buildings. There are currently no new build, high quality facilities available.
7.1.2 The focus for this development is rightly on B1c, B2 and B8 uses (Light industrial, general industrial and
storage and distribution). This is because Langage is not a traditional office or R & D location. Our
analysis of existing floor space that currently exists shows that the size range with the most buildings is
10,000 – 20,000 sq ft. Four larger buildings equate to 33% of the estate’s total built stock There are no
existing buildings lower than 2,000 sq ft in size.
7.1.3 There is currently approximately 1million sq ft available in the Plymouth market reflecting 5% of total stock.
A large proportion of these properties are older style and this demonstrates a distinct shortage of high
quality modern space.
7.1.1 The Langage supply currently stands at approximately 200,000 sq ft which is made up of seven buildings.
It should be noted that the Former St Ives print factory accounts for 142,000 sq ft of this figure. This figure
includes mainly 1980’s and refurbished accommodation but no new-build space. There are limited options
between 5,000 – 10,000 sq ft.
7.1.2 There is currently little or no developer activity despite a large volume of employment land in the Plymouth
area that could accommodate industrial development. We believe that owner occupier, design & build
projects will be scarce in the short – medium term. It is therefore appropriate for public sector intervention
and positive that PCC want to act as the catalyst and go on the ‘front foot’ to provide speculative, modern
employment accommodation for the needs of businesses both within Plymouth and those looking to locate
to the City.
7.1.3 Without public sector intervention, the lack of private sector delivery will lead to a lack of supply of new-
build, high quality premises and potential loss of businesses to the area.
7.1.4 The occupier take-up figure for the whole of Plymouth for 2012 amounts to 26,058 sq m (280,470 sq ft).
This figure is net of the Toshiba factory deal. We believe that the majority of smaller deals below 225 sq m
were on modern buildings – however there has been a lack of supply of modern, larger facilities and this
may have constrained businesses. It is notable that 20 of the 28 recorded deals were on floor space under
900 sq m.
7.1.5 A large proportion of the 2012 take-up and current demand is for manufacturing uses rather than
distribution use. There is a reduction in warehousing demand as manufacturers are making to order and
then shipping rather than creating stock piles of finished goods. This in itself could benefit PCC as job
numbers within manufacturing are likely to be higher than in distribution.
7.1.6 We estimate that around 40% of all currently live demand is from the distribution / warehousing sector
(Class B8), 50% from light industrial sector (Class B1c) and 10% for general industrial space (Class B2).

Demand & Supply Report – 8 March 2013
7.2 Recommendations
7.2.1 In terms of size of unit provided by PCC on this land, we believe the best market response will be for floor
space between 2,500 – 10,000 sq ft. Unless there is a specific Economic Development policy, then units
below 2,500 sq ft should not be considered due to increased costs of delivery.
7.2.2 Our recommendation (subject to design) is to construct buildings that are highly flexible and divisible,
therefore providing a number of size options for occupier demand. A 2,500 sq ft unit grid could allow four
size options within a 10,000 sq ft building.
7.2.3 The current demand profile shows a similar split between manufacturing and distribution uses. Both
sectors require access for larger delivery vehicles and therefore plot density should be no higher than
40%. Eaves heights should be not less than 6 metres to allow mezzanine or first floor potential which
provides scope for additional flexibility and expansion for occupiers.
7.2.4 In terms of phasing, we suggest that 30,000 sq ft per annum would be appropriate. It would be beneficial
to put in the infrastructure to advance the build programmes of later phases.
7.2.5 As the focus is on providing leasehold options, these need to be with flexible lease terms. If there is a
requirement to sell the completed units then we recommend long leasehold disposals on 125 year terms
as required where there are common areas or services.
7.2.6 We recommend that rental levels ranging between £5.50 and £6.50 per sq ft. are appropriate, dependent
on specification, size, covenant and lease term. If necessary, the pricing for long leasehold units should
range between £70.00 and £85.00 per sq ft, dependent on scale and fit-out.
7.2.7 There is support from the Chamber of Commerce, who when interviewed stated that there was not enough
modern space in the market and that focus should be on providing product for latent demand. This latent
demand was from firms involved with modern manufacturing and currently employed <50 staff. Langage
was a good location for this space due to its accessibility. They stated that it was important that
businesses who locate there have the opportunity to grow onsite and a clear pathway to that expansion.
The Plymouth Manufacturers’ Group also support the supply of new employment space.
