Light Industrial for rent in West Sussex
Apollo Business Park (Unit A) has undergone a complete and high-quality transformation from a former HQ complex into a brand-new, thoughtfully designed business park. Every visible surface across the site has been replaced - including all groundworks, cladding, glazing, personal access doors, electronically operated sectional loading doors, and insulation - to deliver a modern, energy-efficient development targeting a significantly improved EPC rating.
The site offers flexible and versatile accommodation across both ground and first floors, with unit sizes ranging from approximately 913 sq ft to 2,194 sq ft. Units can be easily combined to create larger spaces tailored to tenants' needs as required.
Each floor benefits from generous ceiling heights of 3.7m, with electronically operated sectional loading doors (3m high x 3.9m wide) at ground floor level, providing excellent access and usability.
The site is enclosed by a high-security perimeter fence and accessed via twin electric gates with a dedicated in-and-out traffic system, making it exceptionally secure and well suited to businesses with higher-value stock or equipment.
The layout allows for excellent HGV access, and parking provision is generous - with over 20% of spaces fitted with EV chargers and overall capacity far exceeding typical, similar estates.
Further benefits include:
Full site-wide CCTV security system
Access to dedicated high-speed leased line fibre
Three-phase electricity supplied to every unit
Full external LED lighting and LED lighting throughout each property
The ability to scale operations with on-site container storage and additional future units.
Location
Apollo Business Park occupies a prime position on Cheesemans Lane, approximately 5 miles west of the historic Cathedral City of Chichester and 6 miles from Havant. It benefits from immediate access to Common Road to the north and the A259 coastal route to the south, with the A27 just a 5-minute drive away, offering fast links to Portsmouth, Brighton, and the wider South Coast.
Further afield, the site offers excellent access to both the A3 and M3 corridors, making it ideal for businesses needing to connect efficiently to London, the Midlands, and the national motorway network.
Nutbourne railway station is just 1.3 miles to the south, offering regular services across the South Coast and into London, making the site accessible for both staff and logistics.
One of Apollo's most unique advantages is its location outside of major urban centres - avoiding the congestion and logistical headaches often associated with city-based industrial parks. Despite the peaceful, semi-rural surroundings, demand for modern commercial space in this area is high and availability is extremely limited, making Apollo a rare opportunity in a strategic and stress-free setting.
Planning
Planning was obtained in 2025 to covert the site, previously used as the HQ for Charles Taylor Group (formerly CEGA), into a flexible E class (giii) business park. The full planning for the site is as follows;
"Refurbishment and redevelopment of existing buildings A and C and demolition and replacement of building B to create offices and light industrial units (use class E(g)(i-iii)), demolition of buildings D and E, installation of storage containers (use class B8) and associated works including reconfiguration of the car parking area to create additional parking spaces."
