About Offices in Kettering
Kettering's office market is dominated by smaller professional suites and mid-sized business park units, catering to a mix of local professional services, national firms with regional presence, and technology occupiers. The town centre saw significant regeneration investment, with Newlands Shopping Centre and surrounding office stock refurbished to modern specifications. Kettering Business Park to the north offers larger, more contemporary office accommodation with excellent parking and A14 access.
Rents for office space in Kettering typically range from £8-16 per sq ft per annum, positioning the town competitively against Corby, Wellingborough and Northampton. Business rates relief programmes for smaller occupiers make Kettering particularly attractive to startups and growing SMEs. Serviced office availability exists at multiple town centre locations, with flexible terms.
For office occupiers requiring London access, Kettering's 55-minute rail journey to St Pancras makes hybrid working arrangements viable - a growing consideration for professional services firms competing for talent.
Business character
Kettering's commercial economy is anchored by logistics and distribution, thanks to the A14 corridor providing east-west road connectivity between the M1 and East Coast Main Line. Major regional distribution centres for national retailers and third-party logistics operators cluster around Telford Way Industrial Estate and Kettering Venture Park.
Beyond logistics, the town has a strong manufacturing base including RS Components (electronics distribution, HQ'd nearby) and Weetabix (Burton Latimer, adjacent). Growing sectors include professional services, technology, engineering, and food production. The North Northamptonshire Council area continues to attract commercial investment across all sectors.

Market context
Kettering's commercial market is characterised by strong logistics tenant demand - the A14 corridor continues to attract major distribution occupiers, with several build-to-let developments currently underway. Warehouse rents in the 20,000-100,000 sq ft range are competitive with comparable Midlands locations. Office availability skews toward smaller professional units, with the town centre benefiting from recent regeneration investment. Industrial land availability remains constrained, driving up capital values for freehold plots.
