Six businesses have agreed deals to move into the St James Business Centre, off Wilderspool Causeway.

They are robotics manufacturer SAM Labs, taxi firm ENA Cars, recruitment consultants Lignum Group, workplace investigator Intersol, management training company Instep and engineering services provider MRC Global.

Wire Regeneration, the joint venture between Langtree and Warrington Borough Council which operates the small to medium enterprise hub, says that the leases are ‘real, sustained and indicative of the resilience of local businesses’.
