The consultants were instructed by a private investor to market the unit. Eamon Kennedy, executive partner and head of agency at Kirkby Diamond in Luton, said: “Academy Foodservice is an exciting new food venture and we wish the owners every success. They have agreed a 10-year lease on a unit, which is ideal for their requirements and is situated in a very convenient location.”
