Huddersfield as a business town

Huddersfield’s business economy still carries the shape of its engineering past: precision manufacturing, textiles, chemicals and the supply chains around them. The university adds a steady flow of technical graduates that several local firms recruit from directly.

For buyers, Huddersfield is a good place to find technically-minded suppliers — engineering-led contractors, industrial electricians, manufacturers’ accountants — rather than the marketing-led firms that cluster in Leeds.
