Last Thursday, we launched our brand new Stockton-based headquarters to support the rapid expansion of our growing business and commitment to growth and innovation in Teesside, providing a modern and efficient workspace for our employees.

Having outgrown our previous office premises close to the A19 on the Stockton North Tees Industrial Estate, our purpose built HQ at Urlay Nook gives us 30% more space to allow for the future expansion of the business both in terms of staff requirements and material storage.

Maurice Moore, Commercial Director at Mandale Group, said: “The transformation of the new office and warehouse space has not only made working for Mandale so comfortable, but has also allowed staff to socialise together, making for a better environment for the whole team. The wellbeing of all the staff is reflected in the number of attendees using the excellent facilities provided by Mandale and I’m sure will lead to the retained growth of the company in Teesside and beyond.”

Helen Woods, Sales Director, added: “We purchased 44 acres in Urlay Nook to develop an industrial business park that will bring new businesses and jobs to the area. It has such great links to the major roads, Teesside airport and with the Freeport status it will be really attractive to companies looking for a base in the North East.

“The Mandale office and warehouse was the first on site, but we are already into phase one of the 23 hybrid industrial units we have planned for the site. These will be ready for occupation in the Summer of 2024.”

Tees Valley Mayor, Ben Houchen, who is visiting our new office later this month, said: “Mandale Group are a true Teesside success story and it’s incredible to see their continued growth and on-going commitment to our region through this latest expansion. Their new HQ means Mandale now have space to expand, win new work and take on more staff, which is exactly what we like to see.”

The grand opening event, held on Thursday, February 2nd, was attended by Middlesbrough FC footballer Matt Clarke – we are proud partners of the Middlesbrough Football Club Foundation as part of our commitment to our local community. He was joined by pupils from Eaglescliffe Elementis training academy, which we also support through sponsorship, alongside local business leaders.

Jeremy Good, director at ELG Planning attended the open day event and said the office “rivals any recently constructed office scheme in the region.”

He said: “Building on the historic planning approval, Mandale have done a great job delivering this high-quality office scheme which, for its staff facilities and build quality, must be rivalling any recently constructed office scheme in the region.

“It’s great news for Stockton that such a long-established employer has put down roots on this prestigious site and we look forward to working with them and the planning department to deliver the rest of the scheme.”

Vulnerable families in need across Teesside have been gifted Christmas food hampers thanks to the generous donations of Mandale suppliers jumping on board, we have been able to help more families than ever before. Mandale Homes has supported the Cause Foundation’s Christmas Hamper Appeal for the past three years but this year the number donated has increased to 72 hampers which will help feed 148 people and provide each of them with a gift. 

The donations, supporting 52 single people and 20 families, form part of Mandale Homes’ active community support programme, which has seen it donate more than £23,500 to worthy charitable and community causes this year.  Causes supported range from the Salvation Army, an autistic charity, bed poverty and helping those fleeing domestic violence to the Alzheimer’s Society and the Teesside Charity, of which they are Patrons. 

The Cause Foundation’s Christmas Hamper Appeal was established in 1987 and this year celebrates 35 years of gifting festive food to those families across Teesside who find themselves in genuine financial hardship.  Working with partner agencies, including schools, social workers and charitable organisations, the Foundation receives nominations to offer targeted support for families needing help.

Mandale Homes gifted £2,500 towards the community cause and also appealed to companies they work with to pledge £200 each.  18 companies from across the North East gifted cash which combined added a further £3,600 to the cause, including 62 Christmas selection boxes for the children. The hampers are particularly welcome during the current cost of living crisis where families are struggling with rising food and energy bills.

Richard Harriman, Director, Mandale Homes commented:

“This is an incredibly important local community cause and we are delighted to be able to support vulnerable families across Teesside with these festive hamper donations.  Families who are already struggling financially are facing even bigger challenges with rising food and energy costs, so we have stepped up our support this year by giving more. 

“We are very grateful to all the companies we work with who also kindly donated to this worthy cause and hope in some small way it takes the pressure off these families who face real difficulties.”

Julie from CAUSE Foundation have said ‘We would like to thank The Mandale Group and their suppliers for the amazing hampers which were dropped off at Middlesbrough Football Club.  Although the need has increased this year so has the generosity of our supporters. The nominating organisations were totally blown away today when they came to collect your hampers and were so grateful. These hampers will make a huge difference to the receiving families especially in these most difficult times’ 

We are thrilled to continue our 7 year partnership with the whole team at Middlesbrough Football Club and look forward to the rest of the season.
