Live

Stockport is located on the periphery of Manchester, the Northern Powerhouse that is at the epicentre of national business growth, bringing a dynamic and vibrant environment to live and work. Stockport and its encompassing areas offer a more rural feel to residential living, with peace of mind that Manchester City Centre is only a short journey away.

Work

More than two million people of working age live within 30 minutes of Stockport town centre, with a large percentage of these being skilled workers. Stockport is currently home to many international businesses and thriving start-ups, making it a prominent location to base a business in the North West.

Play

It’s not all work, no play. Whether you are looking for small independent restaurants or established brands you know you can trust, Stockport has a thriving leisure community of bars, markets, microbreweries, shopping facilities and museums on your doorstep. Within the scheme, Cafelito is located on the ground floor of 1 Stockport Exchange, serving you with any refreshments you may require.

Connect

Stockport’s connectivity plays a pivotal role in making the town a prime location for businesses. An extensive range of railway routes are accessible from Stockport Train Station, and with plans for Greater Manchester’s Metrolink service to extend its route to Stockport in the future, Stockport will remain a front runner for businesses to station themselves in the North West.
