Why Melton?
Centrally located and exceptionally well-connected with a new £100 million distributor road, Melton Borough in the northeast of Leicestershire offers easy access to international airports and major highways, making it an attractive investment destination.
With a projected 40% expansion of housing over the next 15 years, key capital investments, regeneration projects, access to a skilled workforce and with six nearby universities, we are striving for significant and sustainable growth. By delivering a focus on innovation, we allow businesses to increase their competitiveness and contribute to the prosperity of the borough.
Melton’s heritage in food manufacturing – particularly Pork Pies and Stilton Cheese – earned it the title of the Rural Capital of Food. Yet, while this quintessential English town may be a well-kept secret, the investment case for the borough is nothing short of compelling.
