When Purely Energy was first established as a business in 2021, our business plan was to provide competitive energy prices for businesses. In 2021, with energy prices soaring, we saw an opportunity to create a business that helped other companies secure the lowest possible energy rates.

In order to achieve this, we must keep our fixed costs as low as possible. We have now helped hundreds of businesses save £100s or even £1000s.

Warrington was the best candidate after looking around for the perfect place to locate our new business. With plenty of transport links and easy access via multiple motorways, cheaper rent, and a platitude of support for new companies, basing Purely Energy in Warrington was a no-brainer.

Should you move your business to Warrington?

We found that the price of renting an office space in Liverpool or Manchester city centre could be double or even triple what it is here in Warrington. It is also cheaper for staff to park, with plenty of affordable parking spaces which can be as inexpensive as £2 per day. Purely Energy staff also have access to a free car park area. Affordable parking in other city centres can be a nightmare and many people turn down jobs without parking being avaliable.

Warrington also has excellent resources for new businesses. Firstly, 98% of Warrington has superfast broadband coverage.

In terms of recruitment, Purely Energy are looking to expand by hiring two (or more) team members a month, which is where the large pool of recruitment services within Warrington comes in handy.

The working-age population in Warrington is impressive, with a large percentage of candidates boasting higher education degrees and skilled accreditations, owing to the top level education that Warrington’s schools and colleges provides - Warrington Borough Council has 76 primary schools and 22 secondary schools. A recent addition to the town is University Centre Warrington.

Warrington & Co. also offer grants to help businesses expand. Purely Energy have been offered a grant to assist with the costs of training staff and I.T expenditure, which is an amazing opportunity for any new businesses to consider when locating in Warrington. Warrington is the 4th best town in the UK for the biggest job growth.

Leisure within Warrington is also impressive. Constant redevelopments in Warrington means that it is not just an ideal place for the company to be based, but also provides a platitude of social and leisure activities, plenty of coffee shops or restaurants to visit on your break, or shops which are open until till 6pm, 8 pm on Thursdays.

At Purely Energy we are extremely proud to call Warrington our base and look forward to our future here, hopefully as a major employer in the area.
