Welcome to TradePod, Hampshire’s premier co-working space designed exclusively for trades businesses. We understand the unique challenges of starting and growing a trade-focused enterprise, and that’s why we’ve created a space where professionals like you can collaborate, grow, and thrive.

TradePod was born out of a passion for helping start-ups succeed. For years, our founders have provided consultancy and marketing expertise to help budding businesses establish themselves and achieve their goals.

TradePod has been a brilliant move for us at ProStar Energy.

Since joining, it’s honestly changed the way we work. The workspace is flexible, the meeting rooms are spot-on, and having a secure workshop is a massive bonus—it’s everything we need in one place.

The team at TradePod are always friendly and helpful, and the extras like networking events, training sessions, and storage make a real difference. It’s a professional setup, but still has a relaxed, welcoming vibe that makes it easy to get stuff done and grow the business.

We’d definitely recommend TradePod to other tradespeople or small businesses looking for a solid, well-run space to work from.

TradePod: The Workshop We Never Knew We Needed!

As a bespoke furniture business, we’re used to working with wood, but let’s be honest – working from home meant more sawdust in the kitchen than on the workbench! Enter TradePod, our new second home (minus the nagging about mess).

The workshops are spacious, the coffee is strong, and the Wi-Fi actually works – which is more than we can say for our old office setup! Having access to proper meeting rooms means we can finally meet clients somewhere that doesn’t smell like wood stain.

The team here is great, always happy to help (or at least pretend to laugh at our terrible carpenter jokes). If you’re a tradesperson or small business looking for a well-equipped, hassle-free space to work, TradePod is the place to be. Just be warned – once you’re here, you may never want to leave!
