“The acquisition of The Old Dairy further strengthens our presence and broadens our offering in Shoreditch, one of the most popular areas for our customers. We see tremendous opportunity to generate long-term value by repositioning the property over time to our distinctive flexible model. I am confident that, together with The Frames, The Old Dairy will be a hub for Shoreditch’s dynamic SME scene for years to come,” said Graham Clemett, Chief Executive Officer of Workspace.
