Our History
Providing Quality Commercial Property for Over 40 Years
Orbit Developments is the commercial arm of The Emerson Group and was set
up to compliment the Group's residential business and to create a
financially secure, long-term base for the group by the development
and retention of commercial investment properties.
Traditional values
The foundations of our business are traditional offices
and industrial premises but we constantly seek out opportunities to
develop, redevelop and refurbish sites. This has lead to the
extension of and the creation of business parks, stand alone
offices, business units, and industrial and distribution
warehouses.
Construction work for the division is primarily undertaken
by our sister company, Jones Contracts, whilst management of its
properties is undertaken by Emerson Management Services. During the
early years the company concentrated primarily on offices and
industrial premises. However, in recent years we have expanded our
activities in order to create a balanced investment portfolio by
constructing major leisure, retail and mixed-use developments such
as Middlebrook, Bolton and Tytherington Business Park, Macclesfield which
are diverse, sustainable and offer potential for significant growth
in future years.
A reputation that speaks for itself
Orbit Developments success is attributable to an enviable
reputation not only for designing and building high quality
developments but also maintaining excellent landlord/tenant
relationships which has resulted in repeat business with many of
our existing tenants, together with adding value to the
portfolio.
Sustainability
We are committed to long-term investment and seek out new
development opportunities including design & build,
re-development and refurbishment schemes. We always aim to retain
our portfolio providing sustainability and consistency to our
customers.
