Knight Property Group has announced the successful completion of construction works on a cutting-edge showroom and vehicle service facility for Ford's biggest dealer group, TrustFord.

The facility, located on a 5.2-acre site at the former Tyseal base within the West Tullos Industrial Estate, was built by MTM Construction, who were the main contractor.

Valued at £10 million, this turnkey development spans 27,976 sq ft and includes 270 customer and display parking spaces, along with a 2 acre car storage compound to the rear.

The project has been successfully handed over to TrustFord for fit-out and is poised to open its doors in March 2024. This strategically located facility will offer new and used vehicle sales, fleet sales and servicing needs for Aberdeen and the broader North East region.

A noteworthy aspect of this development is its commitment to environmental sustainability, achieving an EPC 'A' rating. The 20-year pre-let agreement emphasises TrustFord's commitment to the Granite City following a couple of years at a temporary location while the new site was being developed.

The completion of this high-quality, sustainable development underlines our commitment to providing TrustFord with an exceptional facility.
