Although SE has no specific statutory role in ensuring the occupancy of commercial property,it does assist companies in identifying appropriate properties to meet their requirements. Any enquiries from businesses looking for property that are received via Business Gateway and Scottish Development International are provided with a comprehensive list of available property that meets their criteria. This is not restricted to property that is owned by SE, but includes all available property regardless of ownership.

Additionally, SE provides support to the urban regeneration companies in Scotland, many of which have plans for the acquisition and redevelopment of obsolete property, and ensures that our own property projects do not compete with private sector development activity.
