The Co-operative Group

Shelby was appointed as Project Manager to convert a former Manchester textile warehouse into a state-of-the-art Digital Hub for the Co-operative Group. The new facility provides flexible workspace for Co-op Digital and accommodates sub-let offices for a range of digital businesses, fostering local collaboration at the heart of the city.

The project was delivered in two phases - prioritising completion of the Co-op Digital space in Phase 1, followed by the sub-let areas in Phase 2. Working alongside a neighbouring listed building and navigating a complex landlord structure, Shelby maintained close communication with multiple secondary stakeholders to keep the development on programme and meet the client’s objectives.
