Economy & Enterprise

We work in partnership to promote Worcestershire as a location for business investment.

The team manages a comprehensive database of available commercial land, office, industrial and retail accommodation throughout Worcestershire and receives approximately 400 enquiries a year. Indigenous companies are extremely important to the investment team and a large percentage of enquiries are from local businesses looking to expand or relocate. Further information on the Investment Service can be found at www.worcestershire.gov.uk/business

Worcestershire Ambassador Scheme

As part of the marketing programme, the Worcestershire Ambassador scheme has been developed. The best advert for the County is the people who live and/or work in Worcestershire. The County Council looks to work with business people who are proud to work in Worcestershire, and who through their day-to-day activities are willing to 'sell the benefits' of our great County to the people they meet. We currently have over 140 Worcestershire Ambassadors who actively raise awareness of the County. To assist them in this task, regular events are held hosted by Ambassadors which provides a wonderful networking opportunity and a quarterly newsletter is produced informing the Ambassadors of current issues as well as good news stories from Ambassadors themselves.
