Wrexham: Prime location

Wrexham has long had a reputation for being ‘Business Friendly’ and has much to recommend it as a business location. Any company, large or small, contemplating a move to Wrexham will find, in the Council’s Economic Development Department, a group of dedicated professionals who will do their very best to offer a full package of support and assistance.

Wrexham provide a comprehensive, one-stop source of free information on all matters relating to starting a new operation in the area.  A named contact will be provided, who will deal with all queries, organise site tours and meetings when you visit and ensure that you receive practical help, tailored to your specific needs.

Businesses will have access to a team of experienced and knowledgeable professionals, who offer a confidential advisory service, without cost or obligation.

Site and building searches can be arranged for businesses considering moving into the area and liaison with local property agents and developers arranged.

The Economic Development Department can help businesses get in contact and gain access to the local and regional contacts and agencies, as well as research and information gathering services.

The service also provides assistance to liaise with Local Government departments over the relevant matters. They can also give assistance in identifying and applying for possible sources of funding.

In recent years Wrexham has gained a reputation as one of the UK’s top centres for business growth. At Wrexham County Borough Council, we’ve long adopted a positive approach to economic development, attracting new businesses to the area and helping local companies grow and develop.

So what’s the secret of our success? There are three things that make Wrexham such a great place to do business. Firstly, there’s the skill of our local workforce who provide the diversity and flexibility required for modern businesses. Secondly there’s our location, which provides rapid access to most UK population centres. Finally, there’s the wide range of properties geared towards small, medium and large businesses, with serviced greenfield and brownfield sites also available for development.

Whilst the council own a significant amount of industrial floor space, our investment team works closely with local landlords, property developers and agents to maintain an up-to-the-minute database of land and premises available for industrial, commercial and retail use.

The team can also help companies with many other business issues, including finance, accessing financial assistance, business planning, local services and suppliers and training support.

So whatever your business needs for 2010, get in touch. Wrexham is going places.
