Wakefield has great transport links, with its close proximity to neighbouring major hubs Leeds and Sheffield; it’s also on the ‘fast route’ to and from the capital, getting to and from London in less than two hours. But there isn’t a desperate need to leave Wakefield as its counterparts may have you believe. It is an affordable choice for those wanting to reap the benefits of West Yorkshire city life without the price tag.
And it’s not just a happy home for these corporate giants; there is support for businesses of all stages from the likes of Wakefield First, Creative Wakefield, Ad:Venture, Wakefield Council – all of whom provide support and information on grants and other aspects of business to take companies from start-up to scale-up.
