Peterborough is quickly becoming a top choice for businesses seeking small industrial units and warehouses to rent.

It’s prime location, excellent transport links, and supportive business environment provide numerous advantages for companies of all sizes.

The City of Growth

Set to become England’s fastest-growing city by 2025, Peterborough’s rapid development reflects its strong economic health. This growth offers businesses a unique chance to join a thriving community. Additionally, Peterborough’s attractive house price to earnings ratio makes it a desirable place to live and work, helping businesses attract and retain talent. The city’s economic resilience is further demonstrated by its 101,500 economically active residents, creating a dynamic and skilled workforce.

One of Peterborough greatest strengths is it’s strategic location. Centrally positioned in the UK, the city boasts excellent transport connections. Major road networks such as the A1(M), A47, and A14 provide easy access to London, the Midlands, and the North. You can take the train from Peterborough to London in under an hour and the East Coast Main Line also offers fast rail connections to Leeds and Edinburgh, making logistics and distribution efficient and cost-effective

Future-Forward Developments

While Peterborough has already been making strides to become an attractive location for many, it is also looking ahead with significant developments that will enhance its appeal. The new university, set to offer courses to 12,500 students by 2030, will bring fresh talent and vibrancy to the city. A £43 million investment in Peterborough train station will create a modern office hub, shopping plaza, housing, and restaurants, boosting the local economy. Additionally, the £60 million expansion of the Queensgate shopping centre, including a new Odeon Cinema, will add to the city’s entertainment options, making it an attractive place to live and work.
