Billionaire Issa brothers buy site for new industrial estate that could support 900 jobs

The deal comes after the Yorkshire-based property developer’s successful planning application for the 32-acre brownfield site, with Burnley Borough Council approving construction of a further 500,000 sq ft of industrial and warehousing space.
