A business base built to help meet demand for smaller factory units in Skelmersdale is fully occupied as it celebrates its first anniversary of opening for business.
The £1.7 million Greenwood Business Centre was officially opened last autumn and provides 11 high quality, new industrial units.
Some of the units were snapped up by local businesses even before the centre was completed. Now they are all full and the businesses are enjoying their new purpose-built working environment.
ECS Sunbeds and Leisure was one of the first companies to sign a lease for the units and moved in on the first day the units were available.
“We moved to the Business Centre because we wanted bigger and more modern premises to facilitate our growing needs, but we did not want to move from Skelmersdale because of the close proximity to the motorway network. So when we first saw the plans we put our name down for the two largest units…The units and location are ideal for what we need and we are continuing to thrive as a business.”
Shirley Hewitt, Leisure Finance Director of ECS Sunbeds
