Hide AdKP Nuts moved off the site after being bought out by German-headquarted multinational group, Intersnack, in 2012 and bagging a 141,000 sq ft building at Hellaby for a £16 million nut processing and packing facility.
Graham Vernon, managing director of Timber Garden Buildings Ltd, said: “The Chesterton Road site is perfectly positioned for our operations and enables us to expand the business through a more suitable manufacturing base and distribution set-up.”
