What current tenants say

“We’ve been proud tenants of South Sheilds Business Works for over 16 years. During that time, our organisation has grown and evolved — and the team here has always gone the extra mile to accommodate our changing needs. Whether we’ve needed to expand or reduce our space, they’ve responded with flexibility and professionalism every time.

The staff are always friendly, supportive, and responsive, and the shared areas are consistently clean and well maintained. We’ve also had the opportunity to build valuable partnerships with other tenants on the park, which has added to the sense of community here.

We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend SSBW to other organisations looking for a well-run, welcoming, and adaptable base for their work.”

“SafeSol have been a tenant at South Shields Business Works for around 10 years now. During that time, we have expanded and moved from a small office in the centre into two large warehouses.

The staff at the centre have made our many moves simple and easy. The office and the warehousing space is functional, clean and cost effective. 

It is the staff that make South Shields Business Works. All the staff are extremely helpful, and nothing is ever too much trouble.”

Safesol Ltd

“Since becoming a tenant at South Shields Business Works in 2020, we have reaped the benefit of being centrally based in South Shields. Our Participants often struggle to travel across the borough, we have reduced the financial impact on them by having our offices in the heart of South Shields.

As well as being in such a well-known building in central South Shields, the premises work very well for us, with the facilities such as the free parking and the clean communal areas are a huge benefit to our staff.

The staff who work at Business Works are a real asset to South Tyneside Council, they make our staff and Participants feel welcome upon arrival. We have a great relationship with Julie, Gina and Andy and all the staff, who are always very responsive to any queries or requests.”

Northern Rights Social Enterprise (Tyne & Wear) Ltd

“We at Arbeia Business Services decided to go for a managed workspace after several years of having a privately rented ‘high street’ office. The main initial reasons for the move were security and cost.

However, since the move around nine years ago we found the benefits extended to having our own receptionist (by proxy), great centre staff, comfortable facilities, and an advantageous central location for our client base.

We would recommend a managed workspace for any business currently looking for an office/unit.”

Arbeia Business Services Ltd

“Being tenants at Business Works has been incredibly beneficial for our organisation.

With the work we do it is crucial we have a safe but welcoming environment, and we have both of these at South Shields Business Works and both our adult and young clients enjoy coming to our offices.

The team are wonderful – they are so friendly and helpful and go out of their way to help us when we need it. The offices and communal areas are clean and well maintained, providing a professional welcome to the many people who visit us. We couldn’t think of locating our organisation anyway else.”

“Running our business from South Shields Business Works has been invaluable over the past five years. It has given us the perfect base to start, launch, and grow our company, with a fantastic location that’s convenient for both local customers and those travelling from further afield.

The managed facilities and fully staffed reception create a safe, professional, and welcoming environment every day. We also value the supportive atmosphere and the sense of community among other businesses, which makes it a great place to work and grow.

We’re proud to call South Shields Business Works our home and would happily recommend it to any business looking for a professional and flexible base.”

The Canny Chocolate Company

“Whilst looking for new premises within South Tyneside six months ago, I came across South Shields Business Works.  I contacted the team and within 24 hours I was shown around the unit. I was very impressed and signed up straight away. By the end of that week, I was set up and working from my new office.

The facilities are excellent; the staff and administration are first class together with very reasonable rates and I would highly recommend South Shields Business Works to anyone looking to locate within the area.”

“We have been tenants now for some 9.5 years and it is the best move we have ever made.

The centre staff are now really part of our team as they receive clients and documents at the front desk with total efficiency and professionalism.

We can’t speak too highly of the centre and staff, and we are proud to say it has helped our business grow to where it is today.”

“We are a very small company with an office in the South Shields centre for over 20 years.   We never feel like we are on our own and can always rely on the first class, friendly support from the staff.”

Fountain Safety Solutions Ltd

“We have 2 offices at South Shields Business Works and both work perfectly to suit our needs well.  The whole of the site is well kept with ample free parking along with excellent public transport links within walking distance.  All of the reception staff are friendly, approachable and always on hand to help and support.  We see our future business continue to grow at South Shields Business works.”

J2 Research Ltd

“Herban UK Limited established their business in 2015 as a supplier of Complementary Feed Supplements to the Poultry Industry in the Animal Health Sector of Agriculture.

The initial business set up, worked via a virtual office through the South Shields Business Works facility, however with the success of business growth in the UK and support of the South Tyneside Council, we located to a physical office within the building after two years. With this change, it created great opportunities to become part of the local business community, which in turn helped with idea exchanges with likeminded people.

The office management team have fully supported us to nurture our business to its current level, of which we are eternally grateful for.”

Herban UK Ltd

“Techforce Services Limited has been a tenant at South Shields Business Works since 2003, and it continues to suit our needs just as well today as it did when we first moved in. The centre offers everything we require — a range of units to suit different purposes such as offices and workshops, flexible lease terms that don’t tie us down, and the ability to scale into larger spaces as our business grows. There’s ample parking, a professional reception team to welcome our visitors and handle deliveries when we’re away, and a helpful, friendly staff who are always willing to go the extra mile.

One of the greatest benefits of being based here is the strong sense of community. Over the years, we’ve gained a significant amount of business simply through connections with other companies in the building. Some of these businesses started small and have since grown into national enterprises — yet they still rely on us as a key service provider.

I would highly recommend South Shields Business Works to anyone looking for a supportive and flexible environment to start and grow their business.”
