Owner of Twenty Four 70’s, Mo Overfield commented: “I worked in outdoor retail for many years, but during Covid, I decided I needed a change of direction.

“I have always had an interest in Mid Century Modern – 19602, 1970s and 1980s – and decided to create a business buying, restoring and selling furniture and prints. My unit in Lake Enterprise Park is ideal, in that it provides a secure, well-lit environment, where I can work on the various items I find, and showcase them for sale online.”

Clare Harrison, Assistant Management Surveyor at Whittle Jones Yorkshire added: “I am delighted to welcome Twenty Four 70’s to Lake Enterprise Park. Mo has been a pleasure to deal with and I am pleased we were able to provide the space he required to facilitate his business expansion plans.”
