Fine & Country is set to expand its Northern footprint with the upcoming launch of Fine & Country Manchester, spearheaded by Jonathan Parkinson.

Following the launch of Fine & Country Fylde Coast earlier this year, Parkinson is bringing the brand to Manchester.

Set to open its virtual doors next week and supported by a six-strong team, Parkinson reflects on how his experience and background has brought him to this point. “As a Manchester resident myself, it’s a lifelong ambition to apply my trade in a city I know and love. After 15 years in the industry, largely across East Lancashire, it’s an incredible opportunity to bring Fine & Country’s brand to a city that continues to lead the way both culturally and economically.”

“Fine & Country is the perfect brand for Manchester’s market,” Parkinson added. “It combines global exposure with lifestyle marketing, which is exactly what premium sellers in the area are looking for. Clients want more than a standard estate agency. They want a sophisticated approach, bespoke presentation, and access to an international audience. That’s what we deliver.”

Jonathan Handford, interim managing director of Fine & Country, added: “Manchester is a very exciting and high-potential market, and we’re thrilled that Jonathan and his team are leading our expansion there. Their experience, ambition, and proven success in neighbouring territories make them the ideal ambassadors for our brand in this vibrant city.”
