Located in the London Borough of Hackney, just a stone’s throw from the City, Shoreditch is seen as an enviable location in which to buy or rent shops, office space and commercial property. The area’s recent extensive period of gentrification has caused both the property prices and demand for commercial property to rise. With the newly opened Shoreditch High Street station bringing further mobility to the district, anyone looking for commercial property may wish to consider the benefits of locating in Shoreditch too.
As well as being a sought after business district, Shoreditch is a hotspot for art galleries, bars and restaurants, to provide your staff with a variety of places to unwind after work. Brick Lane is lined with award-winning Anglo-Indian restaurants, and some of the best clubs and pubs in the area, including 93 Feet East. Scattered amongst the range of other pubs Shoreditch boasts are a number of Mediterranean restaurants, also serving award winning cuisine. Throughout the day, you will find an excellent selection of sandwich shops, delis and chain cafes to cater for the lunch needs of your workers.

Whether you are looking for offices or studio space, Shoreditch’s location just north of the City of London would benefit any business that needs to be close to the City but have a range culture and amenities on their doorstep.
Shoreditch’s location next to a number of important banks and institutions should also appeal to businesses involved in the financial sector, whilst the area’s transport links would serve companies that require good mobility around and out of London.
