A company which helps customers protect millions of collectable trading cards has expanded into larger premises in Dorset.
Vault X, founded by four friends in a garage in 2017, bought the freehold to a detached building in Poole town centre.
In a deal through property consultancy Vail Williams, Vault X acquired 12 Lagland Street for an undisclosed sum.
Comprising 2,640 sq ft and a 1,650 sq ft mezzanine, the property will serve as Vault X’s UK headquarters, housing offices and an event space.
It was previously a multi-purpose premises, owned by Toby Gutteridge for his Bravery sports brand and popular Bravery café.
The Special Forces soldier, left paralysed in 2009 after being shot through the neck in Afghanistan at the age of 24, sold the building to focus on his health.
Bryony Thompson, a partner at Vail Williams, which has an office in Bournemouth, said: “Closing Bravery was a loss to the community and we are in awe of Toby for what he achieved.
“Vault X was looking for larger premises, due to expansion, and 12 Lagland Street, which has pedestrian access to Poole High Street, proved the ideal fit.”
