England's newest city, Preston, is an ideal area to set up business.

City status was a significant achievement that recognised Preston's long history, diverse community, sub-regional importance and the Council's ambitious future plans.

It also means that Preston's national and international profile has been raised - increasing the city's potential to attract further investment and jobs.

With a growing and thriving busy city centre it has perfect retail opportunities.

Plus, with excellent transport links via road, train, and ferry Preston is an ideal location.
