Information on this thriving business location.
Just 10 minutes from historic Chester, around half an hour from Liverpool - European Capital of Culture 2008 - and nestling in some of the country's most charming countryside, Ellesmere Port offers attractive investment opportunities as well as surroundings.
The borough council is dedicated to supporting business in the area offering funded advice, grants, and networking opportunities.
The area's prosperity is underpinned by the skills of its people. Cheshire's proportion of highly skilled staff is far above the northwest and national rates, making our productivity higher too.
We can also support employers to bring in local residents not in employment.
Our business numbers are rising faster than the northwest as a whole - be part of the growing economic success.
Successful businesses, such as Nasdaq-listed specialist chemicals company Innospec, have already made Ellesmere Port their headquarters. Drawing on the proud history of the area, the business has a worldwide distribution network and a turnover in excess of £250m.
By relocating to Ellesmere Port in 2006, The Label Factory increased their output five fold to over one million labels per month and received support to market their business. Director John McCann said: "We initially moved here as it was an easily accessible location and an ideal space for our business."
Mechanical engineering business The Cheshire Pump Company launched in Ellesmere Port in 2005 and has gone from strength to strength.
Managing Director Dave Fitzpatrick: "The links to the motorway are unbeatable. I would advise anyone who is looking to set up or relocate their business to seriously consider Ellesmere Port."
Businesses stand to benefit from 560,000 potential workers only half an hour's drive away, within England and North Wales.
Excellent motorway links, direct rail links to the Wirral and Liverpool, and its own port where the Manchester Ship and Shropshire Union canals meet the River Mersey make Ellesmere Port a prime target for national and international companies creating great networking opportunities.
