Commercial Property Success Story
Vida Del Padel: Supporting a Rapidly Growing Padel Brand's UK Expansion
Background
Vida Del Padel is one of the UK's fastest-growing padel operators. Founded by lifelong friends Ross, Cory and Jan, the business launched its first venue in Lincoln in 2024 and has since expanded to six clubs nationwide, with ambitious plans to grow to 20 locations across the UK.
As part of its expansion strategy, Vida Del Padel required legal support to secure and develop new commercial premises for its clubs. Banner Jones was instructed to advise on commercial property matters relating to the company's Lincoln and Chichester sites.
Approach
The development of specialist sports and leisure facilities involves a range of commercial property considerations, often requiring careful coordination between landlords, tenants and other stakeholders.
For Vida Del Padel, the projects involved negotiating commercial lease arrangements and addressing planning and property-related matters necessary to facilitate the development and operation of the clubs.
With the business expanding at pace and working towards an ambitious nationwide growth strategy, it was important that legal advice was delivered efficiently and commercially, helping to keep projects progressing while protecting the company's interests.
How We Helped / Legal Support Provided
Banner Jones' Business Legal Services team provided comprehensive commercial property support for the Lincoln and Chichester developments.
Our team:
- Advised on commercial lease agreements.
- Negotiated and reviewed associated property documentation.
- Provided guidance on planning and property-related considerations.
- Worked closely with the client and other parties involved in the transactions.
- Supported the progression of the developments from initial property acquisition through to completion.
By taking a proactive and collaborative approach, we helped ensure the legal aspects of the projects were managed effectively, enabling the client to focus on growing its business and preparing each venue for opening.
Outcome
Banner Jones successfully supported Vida Del Padel on the property transactions relating to its Lincoln and Chichester clubs, helping bring two key venues to life as part of the company's wider expansion journey.
The company continues to grow rapidly and now operates six clubs across the UK, with plans for further locations nationwide, including a future venue in Chesterfield. Banner Jones is currently advising other padel businesses in relation to sites across the UK.
Client Testimonial
"Our goal has always been to create clubs that bring people together and make padel accessible to as many people as possible. As we've expanded, having trusted advisers to support individual projects has been invaluable, and Banner Jones provided important legal support on our Lincoln and Chichester sites.
We're excited about the future and look forward to bringing Vida Del Padel to even more communities in the years ahead."
Ross, Cory and Jan, Founders, Vida Del Padel
