Bidwells has once again been named top of EGi’s Cambridge office market table and the report revealed that the team had beaten off strong competition from the likes of Savills, Juniper Real Estate, Carter Jonas and Cheffins to stay in first place for the fifth year in a row.
The team had moved more than a quarter of a million square foot of space, despite facing a real shortage of supply.
The largest deal recorded was the letting of Building 9000 at Cambridge Retail Park to Sepura, with Bidwells and Juniper acting on the 63,615 sq ft building.
EGi reported that overall deal volumes were down by one-fifth on last year, as agents struggle to find space for tenants in an increasingly tight market.
Dick Wise, Head of Business Space, said: "We are delighted to have been named top of the Cambridge office table as it is a very competitive market.
"Take up is at record levels and the demand for space remains strong. The main issue is how the city copes with the unprecedented growth in business activity. The next few years will provide a challenge that needs to be met."
