Traders agree to pay up to spur revival BY GAVIN THOMPSON wdbusiness@b-nm.co.uk Traders in the centre of Bristol have taken the bold step of agreeing to pay a levy on top of their standard business rates to fund improvements in the area. Retailers had been voting all month on whether to renew to Broadmead Business Improvement District for another five years and have once again said “Yes”. The scheme sees traders pay an extra 1.5 per cent on top of their rates, or 0.75 per cent for

k to g stores in the Galleries shopping centre. Jo Hawkins, BID manager, said: “We are delighted to announce that the BID renewal was successful at ballot.

“I would like to thank all of you who supported us and we look forward to working with retailers to deliver a third successful BID, which will start on November 1, 2013 and run for a five-year period.” Stores had twice before voted in favour, the first time in 2005. Before then Bristol languished at 30th in the list of top shopping destinations in the UK. Now it is 12th, although the opening of Cabot Circus takes a large share of the credit for that climb. The initiative should help with regeneration of Broadmead as it continues to face extra competition from other shopping destinations and the relentless growth of internet shopping. The goals of the BID team for the next five years include: ■ Promote the entire Bristol city centre shopping area under the Bristol Shopping Quarter banner. ■ Stage a programme of events with appeal to a range of age-groups will be held across the Broadmead area. ■ Cut crime by working with the police and retailers, building on recent success in this area. ■ Introduce more street cleaning so Broadmead matches Cabot Circus. ■ Improving the appearance of empty stores by dressing interiors or by applying colourful graphics to the windows.

Merlin hopes to cast spell over investors The Dorset company behind attractions including the London Eye, Madame Tussauds and Alton Towers will be valued at between £2.8 billion and £3.3 billion when it joins the Stock Market next month. Merlin Entertainments, which operates 99 attractions in 22 countries and had 54 million visitors in 2012, disclosed more details of the float, which will see up to 15 per cent of shares on offer go to retail investors.

Barclays investigated over currency rates

Work-related injuries fall to 17-year low

Barclays revealed it had been drawn into a worldwide investigation into alleged manipulation of currency rates as it reported profits from its investment banking arm fell by half in the third quarter. It said a number of regulatory and enforcement authorities were investigating foreign exchange trading, including attempts to manipulate benchmark exchange rates. Barclays said it was cooperating with the investigation.

The number of major injuries caused by workrelated accidents fell below 20,000 in the past year, the lowest since records began in 1996. There was an 11 per cent drop in injuries such as fractures, burns and amputations as a result of incidents in the workplace in England, Wales and Scotland, said the Health and Safety Executive (HSE). There were 148 fatal injuries, down from 171 the previous year, while the cost of injuries was around £13.8 billion.

Country house hotel goes on the market

Clothes giant Next returns to growth

A 16-bedroom country house hotel near Axminster has come to the market at a guide price of £950,000. Selling agent Savills is inviting best offers by noon on December 5 for the Fairwater Head Hotel at Hawkchurch. Set in around three acres of landscaped gardens and grounds with views across the Axe Valley, the hotel was acquired by its current owners in 2007. It has since undergone a re-decoration and refurbishment programme.

Store sales at Next have returned to growth after a weather-hit slump earlier in the year, the clothing retailer revealed yesterday. Shares jumped 5 per cent as the company also lifted its profits forecast for the year amid a stronger-thanexpected improvement in performance. But the company said trading “remained volatile” throughout the latest period. Sales in the third quarter to October 26 were up 4.3 per cent.

Morph is to make a come-back, with Peter Lord and Dave Sproxton turning to crowd-funding to back the project

Aardman build a new model to fund Morph idea A new animated series of Morph is to be produced by Bristol-based Aardman. The iconic little man first found fame as a short animation on Eighties children’s series Take Hart – the first character to come out of the studio that would later find worldwide fame with hits like Wallace and Gromit. “We love Morph here at Aardman,” said co-founder

“Due to his metamorphosing capabilities, we decided to call him Morph. “I’m amazed and humbled that even though it has been more than 30 years since his birth, the little guy still has such a passionate following on Facebook and YouTube. We’ve had so many people asking for him to make a comeback that I thought it’s about time we start hatching a plan.”

Mr Lord, who co-created the character with fellow Aardman executive Dave Sproxton, plans to make 12 new oneminute Morph episodes, using crowdfunding website Kickstarter to encourage fans to pay for the exercise in nostalgia. “The world has changed a lot since Dave and I were first in a studio making films about a clay character,” he said.

Peter Lord. “He’s one of the first characters we created when we started out in the crazy world of animation. “He was originally in a programme called Take Hart, where he lived on the desk of the artist and presenter, Tony Hart. He was a simple clay character who would mess up Tony’s desk and get into all kinds of mischief while Tony wasn’t looking.

Fledgling fish and chip shop wins title

Finance company’s timely honesty

The Scallop Shell in Frome, Somerset, has been named as one of the top three new fish and chip shops in the UK ahead of the National Fish and Chip Awards 2014, organised by Seafish, the industry authority on seafood. The Best Newcomer Award, sponsored by Frymax, is open to independent fish and chip outlets that have been operating since September, 30, 2011, and rewards the fledgling businesses.

A Bath finance company has been rewarded for its honesty. Last month, Watson Financial mistakenly received 57 designer watches made by Dreyfuss and Co and Rotary worth £20,000. The watches were sent in error by a London courier. Watson Financial has been rewarded for its honesty by being given two Rotary watches to auction, raising £5,650 for Bath Friends of Young Carers and Help for Heroes.

Britain’s second-biggest chain of pawnbrokers has been given a three-month reprieve by its lenders to patch up its overstretched finances. Albermarle & Bond – founded in Bristol in 1983 with a single shop – has seen profits hammered by the slump in the price of gold. It says its banks have agreed to defer a covenant test on its £50 million debt until February 3. The group, which includes Herbert Brown jewellery and pawnbroking stores, said it “continues to explore all options to maximise value for all stakeholders”, while attempting to fix its financing and banking covenant problems. The price of gold has plunged by about a third over

the past two years, squeezing the group’s profitability and leaving it at “high risk” of breaching banking covenants with its lenders Barclays and Lloyds. Reading-based Albemarle’s attempts to secure a £35 million cash injection, from its biggest shareholder EZCorp, flopped earlier this month when talks on a deeply-discounted rights issue were aborted. Albemarle has been slashing costs, including closing 33 pop-up gold buying stores from its 230-store estate. New boss Chris Gillespie said he is considering turnaround options to improve trading. Mr Gillespie, who joined recently from doorstep lender Provident Financial, said its stores have been running on an “as usual” basis while he

considers the company’s future. Mr Gillespie said: “Today’s further covenant testing date deferral agreement is testament to our constructive working relationship with the banks and to their support

Albemarle had already asked for the test of its finances to be pushed back by a month to October 30. The group said it plans to update on its future plans “as soon as is practicable”, followed by the release of its 2013 results. Albemarle’s £49.9 million debt on October 25 was within its £53.5 million facilities. Analysts at Shore Capital stockbrokers said: “The immediate danger that the banks might pull the plug on Albemarle & Bond has passed, we think, and is clearly shown by their willingness to defer the covenant tests until February 2014. “A rights issue is not off the table as a financing option, we believe, and indeed we believe that this would be the best way forward for the group given the level of indebtedness.”

a familiar sight on the summer festival circuit. Romany said: “We were always looking to grow the business but we are thrilled with the way things have gone and at the moment we are looking to expand even more. We are in the process of looking for more stores in different parts of the country.” At one stage the firm, which has always been proud of its links with Bristol, was considering moving its baking operation to South Wales. But a new financing deal led to a change of heart and a major revamp of the Stokes Croft store at the start of the year. As well as serving traditional pie and mash, alcohol was included on the menu for the first time to give the place a more bistro feel. Romany said: “Stokes Croft was very exciting for us because we are going in a completely new direction. “This is the first time we have done anything like this and we are incredibly excited. We have major plans for the year but what we are saying is that we are still very much a part of Bristol and we intend to stay here. “In a way we have come full circle and we have moved our administrative staff into the place where it all began.”

Most people thought they were crazy and many were convinced that a bakers specialising in gourmet pies in a rundown corner of Bristol was always bound to end in failure. But ten years on, Pieminister has been proved spectacularly right and is already planning to sell even more of the famous pies to people across the country and further afield. The firm is one of the biggest business success stories in the city in recent years and in many ways has come to represent the quirky and fiercely independent character of the city. Pieminister was the first

The original Pieminster shop in Bristol was founded 10 years ago foodie firm to open for business in Stokes Croft, an area which was better known at the time for its problems with drugs, vandalism and crime. The pie shop was created by friends and partners Jon Simon and Tristan Hogg in what had been a derelict and wrecked former printer’s shop. Today the recently refurbished Pieminister café and headquarters is surrounded by some of the city’s trendiest bars, cafés and restaurants. The firm has opened branches in Amsterdam, Manchester’s fast-growing Northern Quarter and its most recent pop-up store can be found in the ever fashionable Camden Market.

Tristan Hogg and Jon Simon founded Pieminster in Bristol’s Stokes Croft

Romany Simon, wife of cofounder Jon, has been with the business from the beginning. She said: “People thought we were crazy but it made sense for us at the time. “We were the first of the new businesses to move into the area but the place has completely changed, it is great what is happening in the area.” As well as opening a chain of shops Pieminister’s treats are also sold in supermarkets and the company has also become

Mixed message on energy cost

The Bristol office market is seeing an upturn, according to one firm of advisers which is celebrating clinching a number of deals. CBRE’s latest report revealed take-up of office space in the city centre to be 138,187sq ft for the third quarter of 2013, helped by its first grade A-deal of the year that saw Barclays Bank take 18,759 sq ft at Bridgwater House in Finzels Reach. The firm vacated its previous offices in Queen Square and at Parkway North to combine staff into one modern city centre building. It showed total take up of office space in Bristol city centre so far this year to be 427,673sq ft, as compared to 409,225sq ft during the same period last year. CBRE also oversaw a deal that saw Semperian relocate from Bath and London as the company took 10,084sq ft on the third floor of Broad Quay House on flexible terms.

Mixed political messages are putting jobs and investment in the renewable energy industry at risk, a new report has warned. The Renewable Energy Association (REA) said businesses in the sector are more confident about employment, turnover and business prospects over the next year. But recent political messages risk undermining progress, the REA said. Executives in the industry told the association that the Government should stop giving out “contradictory” messages on energy policies, warning that constant changes “destroyed” confidence. A survey of almost 100 organisations showed that two out of five expected to increase employment. REA chief executive Dr Nina Skorupska said: “The renewables industry is poised to significantly grow its contribution to employment and economic recovery.”

Gloucester Retail Park in Eastern Avenue, Gloucester has been sold for around £11 million. Brockton Pradera Retail LLP, a joint venture between Brockton Capital and Pradera, has acquired the 7.5 acre site to add to its growing commercial portfolio. The retail park, bought from Cornerstone, was built in 1990 and the site tenants currently include Carpertright, What Bargains and AHF Furniture Stores. Richard Gore, a director at Pradera, said: “We are delighted with this purchase, which aligns well with our current portfolio.” Charlie Desmond, a director at Brockton Capital, added: “Gloucester Retail Park will benefit from pro-active asset management, which continues the approach we have taken as a joint venture partnership to acquire assets with genuine potential for improvement and adding real value.”

For Sale

A birthday bash is planned for December but the firm is also marking the anniversary by backing a charity which aims to help farmers in Africa. The ambitious fundraising drive aims to raise £40,000 for Bath-based development charity Send a Cow – enough money to give 30 families in Africa the livestock, seeds, training and on-going support they need to transform them into flourishing farmers. The company will donate 10p from every pie sold through retailers including Waitrose, Sainsbury’s, Ocado, Budgens and Wholefoods towards its so-called Cattle Drive. A series of one-off Cattle Drive nights will be held at selected Pieminister restaurants nationwide, including the Stokes Croft restaurant, where customers can enjoy a pie feast for free in return for donations. Over the next year, Pieminister’s £40,000 fundraising target will fund the construction and stocking of 30 farms, benefiting 30 rural families. Jon Simon, co-founder of Pieminister, said: “We hope that pie-lovers everywhere will get behind this campaign and help us reach our target through the exciting fundraising activities planned.”

4 SOMERSET BUSINESS AWARDS THURSDAY OCTOBER 31 2013 WESTERN DAILY PRESS

WDP-E01-S3

Business excellence recognised at awards BY RICHARD BACHE wdbusiness@b-nm.co.uk The cream of Somerset’s business community gathered in Yeovil for the country’s annual business awards. Organised by the Somerset Chamber of Commerce some 350 business figures attended the glamorous awards ceremony at the Westlands Conference and Leisure Centre in the South Somerset town. Last week’s event was hosted by Heart FM presenter Cormac MacMahon and was deemed by organisers to be the most successful yet. David Griffin, managing partner at main sponsor Albert Goodman, said: “Albert Goodman is proud to be associated with the Somerset Business Awards again. There is an extremely high level of competition this year and it’s pleasing to see such an increased number of entrants. “Confidence among businesses in the county is growing and the outlook for Somerset business is hugely positive.” The ceremony took place only days after the Prime Minister visited Somerset and announced the county would get an enormous economic boost as the biggest hurdle of the Hinkley C nuclear reactor project had been cleared.

The awards ceremony recognised excellence across a number of sectors. One of the major winners was Filbert’s Fine Foods, based at West Pennard near Glastonbury. It is a newcomer to the county’s business scene but has obviously made its mark, winning the New to Somerset Award, sponsored by Somerset’s inward investment organisation, Into Somerset. The marketing and promotions award was won by North Perrott-based Hilton Herbs. It specialises in herbal supplements for animals. Presenting the award, Alice Driscoll, managing director of sponsor ADPR, said: “Businesses in Somerset are doing very creative and innovative marketing and the competition for this award was exceptionally tough.” The environmental award was sponsored by Porter Dodson solicitors and advisors. The gong went to Berry and Escott Engineering and was collected by Gemma Deal and Steve Jones. The Albert Goodman Family Business Award recognises businesses with more than one family member involved in the management of the business and that exert a significant influence over the company. It was presented by

head of family business at Albert Goodman, Paul Hake, who commented on the increasing quality of family businesses in the area. The award went to Western Air Ducts (UK) Ltd. Based in Midsomer Norton, it is a leading industrial air quality consultancy. Chris Lintern dedicated the award to his father who originally founded the company. The business of the year with 11-25 employees was Taunton-based e-commerce solution provider Evosite. It received its award from Amanda Gunter, of A.C. Mole and Sons. James Shakespeare collected the award on behalf of the team and commented, “This is such an amazing award to achieve.” The business of the year (more than 51 employee category) was won by Bridgwater College. It was presented by Neil Wyatt, of sponsor Higos Insurance Services Ltd, and accepted by the college’s principal, Mike Robbins. The charity of the year award was presented by Tim Walker, of award sponsor, Clarke Willmott LLP. The award recognises companies that make a significant benefit to the most vulnerable and was won by the Somerset Rural Youth Project.
