 Traditional and high tech manufacturing companies continue to invest, innovate and grow within East Cambridgeshire taking advantage of the affordable premises and skills on offer in the district. The sector employs up to 15% of the districts workforce with companies such as Megahertz, Michell Instruments and First Light moving from Cambridge to Ely to take advantage of the cost effective business environment.
A support network for manufacturing firms has been developed in conjunction with the University of Cambridge for businesses in the area. The institute for manufacturing (IFM) works collaboratively with companies focusing on transferring knowledge as well as delivering business results. The IFM practitioners can call on many years of practical experience, research and expertise to help manufacturing firms across strategy, innovation, new product development and supply chain management. To find out how the IFM could help your business please visit the IFM website
The sector is closely linked to a first class distribution network and the specialist logistics firms such as Turners of Soham available in East Cambridgeshire. The infrastructure and strategic location near to Felixstow, the A14, A10, A1, M1, M6, M25 and just an hour by train from London Kings Cross/St Pancras, Stansted will allow East Cambridgeshire to continue to meet the needs of manufacturing firms into the 21st century.
