The new Aldershot Enterprise Centre will open on Tuesday at 14-40 Victoria Road.
The centre, operated by WSX Developments, has moved from a former officers’ mess at Mandora House in Gallwey Road, where it has been since its launch in 2014.
The new space will offer offices, co-working space, meeting rooms for hire, a business address service, on-site parking and a large café. Once its refurbishment is complete, more than 50 businesses will be able to accommodated.
Centre manager Lorna Oldham said: “We are so excited for this next chapter moving forward for Aldershot Enterprise Centre.
“We have been fortunate to find a space with the support of Rushmoor Borough Council which helps us to offer a more secure future for the small businesses and start-ups of Hampshire and Surrey.
“In an ideal town centre location, only a short walk from the train station, we can continue our promise to help local businesses find a home and develop their companies with a trusted, transparent and reliable office provider.
“We are incredibly proud that after almost nine years operating in Aldershot and helping hundreds of local businesses that we can continue the same great service helping the local community build businesses that thrive.”
Leader of Rushmoor Borough Council, Cllr David Clifford, said: “This building, once it is fitted out, will be an important part of our regeneration of the town centre and we hope to have many more businesses joining Aldershot Enterprise Centre there. There will also be a payoff in terms of increasing footfall for our retailers.
“It’s the perfect location for Aldershot Enterprise Centre to carry on with their important work mentoring and helping to grow businesses and creating new jobs in our community.”
