i54 Business Park western expansion

A high-profile site with an international reputation, home to global businesses and high-value-added employers, including JLR’s Engine Manufacturing Centre alongside other global businesses.

i54 is a joint venture partnership between City of Wolverhampton Council, Staffordshire County Council and South Staffordshire Council. The site has attracted significant multinational investment, resulting in advanced manufacturing creating thousands of new jobs across a high-class business park.

Following on from the huge success of i54 South Staffordshire, the next exciting phase provides a further extension of 60 acres to the west of the site. Interest has already been shown, with now only 25 acres remaining and immediately available for advanced manufacturing, technology, training and innovation. It is an opportunity for further high-quality occupiers that will galvanise i54’s reputation as a regional, national and international strategic site and centre of excellence for advanced manufacturing.

One of the UK’s most successful Enterprise Zone with over £1 billion already invested, and direct access to the UK motorway network (Junction 2 of M54 off junction 10a M6).

The remaining 25 acres provides fully-serviced development platforms capable of accommodating up to 45,000m² of B1 and B2 floorspace and with a large power supply of up to 10MVA available.

i54 is home to international businesses and high-value-added employers, including JLR’s Electric Propulsion Manufacturing Centre alongside other global businesses such as Moog, ERA, Atlas Copco and recently Fortune Brands.

Why invest in Wolverhampton?

Wolverhampton has been backed by the UK government in February’s Levelling Up White Paper to continue to deliver even more ambitious regeneration projects across the city. This is a strong endorsement of the work of City of Wolverhampton Council, who have an impressive track record of delivery in partnership with a range of public and private sector organisations.

With £4.4 billion worth of investment on site or planned, the face of our city is changing through the creation of a wealth of attractive opportunities for developers and investors. Prime examples of this collaborative working are the award-winning £1 billion i54 Business Park, the £150 million Interchange transport hub, the £17.5 million National Brownfield Institute at the University of Wolverhampton’s Springfield Campus, and the £16 million construction of the i9 office complex – now home to the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities’ second headquarters.

With 10,000 new homes planned, the potential for another 1 million ft² of office space, opportunities in retail, leisure and hospitality, and an enviable portfolio of heritage buildings, Wolverhampton is a prime location for investment in the heart of the UK.
