Bounce Central lands on Lincoln for latest venue

The Carlton Centre in Lincoln is the location chosen by soft play leisure business, Bounce Central for its first venue in the East of England, confirms Eddisons incorporating Banks Long & Co who acted on behalf of the landlord in the letting of the premises.

Unit 20 at the Carlton Centre – the retail park two miles north of Lincoln city centre – gives Bounce Central over 8,500 sq ft of space in which to host its trampoline and soft play equipment open sessions, scheduled classes, parties and events.

Established in 2016, the family-run business already has two successful venues in the North West – Salford and Oldham – and, in looking to branch out to the East of England, had been seeking a suitable location for a number of years.

As James Fearn, Managing Director, Bounce Central, explains, the leisure business landed on Lincoln for a number of reasons.

He said, “Having grown up in the area, I know Lincoln very well and opening up a Bounce Central branch in the East of the country has been part of our business growth plan.

“Lincoln has changed a lot since my childhood. Recent regeneration and investment in the city centre, in particular, sees the area raising its game in responding to changing habits and expectations of a young and vibrant demographic. It’s a market and a vibe we want to tap in to.”

Bounce Central’s new venue at the Carlton Centre is currently being fitted out and is scheduled to open on 20 July. The new Lincoln operation will take the company’s total headcount to 75 staff, in adding to its current number of 53 across its North West venues.

James Butcher of Eddisons incorporating Banks Long & Co, who led the agency deal in the letting of the premises to Bounce Central, commented, “The Carlton Centre is the largest retail park in the immediate Lincoln area and is a popular neighbourhood centre.

“There are over 10,000 people living within easy walking distance of the centre and it has over 450 parking spaces. It’s an ideal location for an operator looking to bring a leisure offer to add to that of established high profile retailers at the centre.

“We’re happy to have played our part in securing Bounce Central as the new occupier and, in doing so, providing a warm welcome home to a Lincolnshire lad.”
