Business First Hotspots: The Benefits of Running Your Business In Blackpool
27 Apr 2022 –– Hotspots
As a hotspot for enterprises and growing businesses, we've looked at why Blackpool has become the destination to work in.
Most people know Blackpool as an iconic seaside resort town with miles of beaches and dunes, promenades, and winter illuminations, attracting up to 6 million tourists every year. But did you know that Blackpool is also home to a wealth of businesses and enterprises?
Enterprising hub
Blackpool was awarded ''enterprise status'' in 2016, including a 144-hectare site much larger than the other UK zones. The enterprise zone was designed to create jobs, long-term sustainable growth and attract new companies to the area. Blackpool Airport is ideal for professionals looking for executive travel, including private jets and bespoke aviation solutions. With many places such as the historic Winter Gardens holding regular business awards evenings and conferences, the town is a hotspot for networking. Business First Blackpool is ideally located near the airport and retail park, with added stunning sunset views of planes taking off.
More to offer
Although there is plenty of lively entertainment, Blackpool has much more to offer than showbiz lights and tourist attractions. Its lush green spaces, such as Stanley Park and Lytham Green, are great places to escape for after-work runs or quiet lunchtime walks and the rolling dunes and stretching beaches are a great way to see Blackpool's more peaceful side. The seaside town has lots to offer when entertaining clients and visitors. Hire a VIP box and exclusive dining package to delight guests and watch the game at Blackpool Football Club or take them to one of the many restaurants and bars that line the boardwalk.
Smooth connections
Along with a local airport, it is easy to commute to and get around Blackpool with many transport links available. With connections via trams, trains and buses, and plenty of main roads accessible from the motorway, our Blackpool Business Centre is easy to get to and has ample on-site car parking to make your commute as stress-free as possible.
