Marketing Intelligence: Built for Local Businesses in Woodshutts
Woodshutts is one of Cheshire East's local areas, within postcode district ST7, bordering Hardings Wood, Red Bull and Clough Hall. Crewe barely existed before the Grand Junction Railway sited its works there in the 1840s, growing the town's population to 40,000 by 1871, and it remains home to Bentley Motors' UK headquarters today.
Crewe's first ever Business Improvement District began operating in April 2024 after 67% of eligible local businesses voted in favour, raising around £260,000 a year toward a £1.6 million programme of town centre improvements. According to official ONS figures, there were 19,750 VAT and/or PAYE registered businesses in the area.
14.5% of working-age people in Cheshire East were economically inactive in 2023 (ONS). A labour market like that shapes who's around to become your customer - marketing intelligence helps you reach them.
