Construction and fit-out company Medlock FRB has completed three new venues for fast-expanding restaurant and bar operator Arc Inspirations.
Leisure sector specialist Medlock undertook two projects in Manchester city centre and one in Leeds.
The Manchester sites are a Manahatta and a Banyan Bar & Kitchen.
Arc has added a second Banyan Bar & Kitchen to its Manchester portfolio following its success with the brand in the nearby Corn Exchange, as the chain continues to develop its cluster approach.
Its £1.6m investment in Spinningfields saw a 7,000 sq ft site transformed into a 230-cover casual dining venue, creating 50 jobs.
The Manahatta involved a £1.8m investment by Arc at the grade II listed Royal London House on Deansgate.
Medlock carried out structural alterations and internal and external works to create a restaurant and bar spanning 8,000 sq ft over two floors, with 238 covers and three private dining areas. Sixty jobs have been created at the venue.
Chris Addy, senior project manager for Medlock, said: “These latest projects for Arc Inspirations on both sides of the Pennines underline our ability to win repeat business from our client base.
“We are delighted to play a part in the company’s ongoing expansion and look forward to being involved in further schemes as its growth continues.”
