Quorum Park, formerly Quorum Business Park, is an office development located in North Tyneside, North East England.
History Quorum was a part of the North Tyneside Enterprise Zone that existed from 1996 to 2006. The site originally housed Viasystems, a major semiconductor manufacturing plant. Following the closure of the plant, the current owners purchased the site and transformed it into a business park. Tritax provided funding for the development, with construction managed by Grantside, both serving as joint venture partners in the business park.
By 2010, Quorum sold of office space shared between six companies, most notably Tesco Bank and Balfour Beatty. British Engines relocated to Quorum their central core services teams in December 2013. In August 2014, Cofely, a building and energy services company, moved into a 26,000 sqft office building. In 2016, Greggs relocated its head office from Jesmond to Quorum Park. In November 2019, Shelborne Asset Management acquired a significant portion of the park for £32 million. As part of the acquisition, the park underwent rebranding in 2020 to enhance its image.
Operation In 2009, Quorum introduced a Q-card offering local discounts on food and leisure. It operates sports clubs, which provide office workers with free access to football, tennis, or netball. Additionally, there is a PureGym, shops, Greggs bakery, cafe, and a nursery.
