Why Rent with The Arch Company?

We manage more commercial space for small and medium-sized businesses than anyone else in the UK. Our portfolio covers 5,300 properties across 24.8 million sq ft — including railway arches, former station buildings, and parcels of land in urban locations throughout London and beyond.
In Battersea and across South London, we have been working with local businesses for years. We understand the area's sub-markets, the types of businesses that trade well here, and the practical questions that matter most when you are making a leasing decision.
  • Flexible terms — we work with start-ups and growing businesses, not just established operators
  • Straightforward process — we keep things clear, from your first enquiry through to signing your lease
  • Ongoing support — we are your business space provider for the long term, not just at the point of signing
  • Scale and stability — as part of a large, established portfolio, you benefit from a business space provider with the resource to maintain and invest in its properties
We are not here to push you into a space that does not fit. Let's look at what you need and see what works.
Light Industrial and Workshop

Light Industrial and Workshop

If you need space for manufacturing, fabrication, vehicle servicing, storage, or trade use, our arches offer strong floor-to-ceiling heights, roller door access, and robust construction. These are practical working spaces built to handle daily operational demands.

Retail

Retail

Arches with good frontage and high footfall make strong retail units. Whether you are selling direct to the public or running a showroom, a Battersea arch can give you the visibility you need at a more manageable cost than a conventional shop unit.

Food & Beverage

Food & Beverage

Several of our Battersea arches are suitable for food and drink businesses, including cafes, street food operators, and production kitchens. Many have the structural capacity for extraction and drainage — though this varies by unit, and we will be upfront about what each space can accommodate.

Office and Studio

Office and Studio

Creative agencies, photographers, designers, and small professional teams have found that a well-fitted arch makes an inspiring and cost-effective studio or office. The character of the space can also work in your favour when clients visit.
