In 2010 MBH Partnership celebrates 50 years in practice.

The original practice, McCarthy Bainbridge Partnership, was started in Old Bond Street, London in 1960 and then moved out to Wimbledon for many years. As we grew we relocated again, to West Byfleet in 1995. Two years later in 1997 we acquired the Hollis Partnership & at that time (as we are now) became known as MBH Partnership.

Not only have we been successfully practising for 50 years but we will soon be celebrating another significant milestone, our 10,000^th project!

‘No significant Impact on the Green Belt’ that was the conclusion of Woking Borough’s Councils Planning Committee in the recent meeting to discuss the planning application at Mouchel’s old head office site in West Byfleet.

With skilful design, green architecture, sustainable energy solutions and a dedicated development team, MBH Partnership managed to obtain a unanimous decision for the development to be allowed.

MBH Partnership has been involved with Tesco Stores from the inception of the Express Convenience Store programme. We helped develop the Convenience Store model taking the Petrol Station kiosk concept and adapting it to both the High Street and Standalone site.

During the past years we have been involved in several thousand feasibility studies for Tesco Express and have designed in excess of 250 operational stores from the first actual one in Southborough, Kent, to our 250^th operational store at Bedford High Street, Bedford.

Today we are known as one of the (if not the) leading Retail Convenience Store Designers.
