Description

 

Spreading out over seven floors (100,000sqft) of a former warehouse in Speirs Locks, The Whisky Bond offers a diverse range of studios, production facilities and event spaces.  We have been involved with TWB since it opened in 2012 and been responsible for developing the community for the building and managing the marketing, events and letting of spaces

 

The building has been developed in two stages and since 2014 we have worked closely with the developer of the upper floors, ISIS Waterside Regeneration, and leased over 50% of available space.  Part of our work has been to coordinate the events programme fro the building, which has included:

 

– Show your work – Show and Tells from tenants
Summer Party and Christmas Party’s
Speirs Locks Social (monthly)
