The ,252 sq m steel-framed building is being delivered for site owners Trafalgar Global Limited nad will include a show room and hire store, concrete HGV yard and new car park.

Stepnell's operations and commercial manager for Nottingham, Thomas Sewell, said: "We're very excited to be helping create these purpose-built premises for Selco in Leicester. The scheme will create a spacious and modern builders' merchants store in this easily accessible location to the north of the city centre."
