The excellent road network around Warrington means that companies can access a population of over 6.2 million people within a 45-minute drive time. One reason for Warrington’s economic success is its well-developed infrastructure and connectivity, in particular its proximity to the M62, M6 and M56 motorways. It also has two train stations on offer, and being so close to Liverpool and Manchester also means both airports are within easy reach, should you or your colleagues or clients need to travel internationally. Manchester and Liverpool are two of the most exciting cultural centres of the UK, and the town is pretty much equidistant between the two, giving you all the benefits of both. Not only does this mean that Warrington’s culture is more vibrant than you’d expect – especially when it comes to working lunches, with a range of exciting eateries – it also means the town has a huge catchment area for potential clients, without the added cost of being located in a major city centre. Access to a pool of talent Warrington is a great place to recruit staff, as its talent pool is full of ambitious and skilled people ready to take their career to the next step. Being so close to Manchester and Liverpool has another major advantage, as both cities have universities spilling out talented graduates. The University of Chester also has a Warrington campus, meaning you will have the opportunity to recruit students while they’re still studying. Moving forward with regeneration Warrington recently completed a major regeneration project, which is great news for small businesses. Not only is it likely to lead to more money being poured into the town from visitors and business investors and could be a source of jobs for ambitious entrepreneurs. The £130 million Time Square project is scheduled now completed shortly and includes a Cineworld multiplex cinema, a market hall, new council offices and a public square.
