NEW OWNER HAS YET TO MAKE CONTACT WITH AFFECTED TENANTS

GOREY Business Park sold for €1.55 million through an online auction which was held on Wednesday through selling agent BidX1.

The new owner of Gorey Business Park has yet to get in contact with the tenants, who are all hoping that whoever bought the portfolio will pledge their support to the businesses currently trading there.

The Business Park, which had a guide price of €1.5 million, did not receive a lot of interest. The online auction was between two anonymous bidders and the buyer remains unknown.

Anton Clancy of MyFitt Gorey said he has had no contact so far from the new owner and did not know it had been sold.

Owner of East Coast Hunting and Shooting Paul Walsh said he has not heard from the new owner and does not know who it is.
