Penn Commercial returns to Colchester's GreyFriars Hotel for insightful Autumn 'Board Room Lunch'

At Penn, we firmly believe in the power of personal and professional connections, and we were pleased to welcome friends and colleagues from the various sectors with whom we work at our Autumn ‘Board Room Lunch’ yesterday, held once again at the excellent GreyFriars Hotel in Colchester.

Thanks to James Palmer of the Eastern Powerhouse for talking us through the plans to lobby for enhanced funding for the East, with wider national recognition of our strategic importance and the need for a longer-term spatial strategy for our region, to align transport and housing plans over a 20-to-30-year period.

Our appreciation also to Ian Currie of Suffolk Chamber of Commerce Sizewell C Supply Chain for outlining the time frame for the ambitious nuclear scheme on our doorstep, with opportunities for local businesses to benefit at every stage of the project.

We were also grateful to long-standing client, OMC Investments, and their attentive staff for making us very welcome at their impressive Grade II*/ Grade II-Listed hotel on East Hill in Colchester. 

We look forward to continuing to work with our wide range of stakeholders to assist with their current commercial agency and property management needs, and those in the future.
