CPP enters North West with high profile hire
Industrial & logistics director Nathan Khanverdi has joined the firm from Colliers to spearhead its launch into the regional market.
CPP – Commercial Property Partners – was founded in 2013 and operates from Sheffield, Leeds, Nottingham and London. The firm acquired big box specialist Moriarty & Co last November, signalling its intent to grow coverage across the UK.
Khanverdi brings a proven track record from his time at Colliers, where he started seven years ago, reaching director level in 2024 after some high-profile deals.
He has worked with clients including Firethorn, Tungsten, Chancerygate, Tristan Capital, PGIM, and Derbyshire County Council. Career highlights include the acquisition of 432,000 sq ft on 21.5 acres for Firethorn at Hardwick Grange in Warrington and securing a 243,000 sq ft unit development site for Tungsten, now let to Farmfoods.
Other achievements include delivering a 30-acre site with a 500,000 sq ft speculative unit named Arc Royal in Birkenhead, a site CPP is joint agent on.
