Supporting Chester businesses
Chester is a historic walled city with an economy built on financial services, tourism, retail and nearby advanced manufacturing. Bank of America has a large site at Chester Business Park, and financial services, insurance and contact centre operations have long been significant employers. The Rows, the city walls, the racecourse and Chester Zoo draw large numbers of visitors, supporting hotels, restaurants, bars and independent shops.
Just over the Welsh border, Airbus builds wings for commercial aircraft at Broughton, and Ellesmere Port to the north has the Stellantis vehicle plant and a cluster of chemicals and manufacturing businesses. Many of their suppliers and staff are based in and around Chester. The University of Chester and the Countess of Chester Hospital are also major local employers.
Financial and professional firms in Chester need Microsoft 365 tenants that are well secured, with MFA, Conditional Access and email protected from impersonation. Contact centre operations need reliable networks, VoIP and quick fixes for headsets and softphones. Manufacturing suppliers need secure handling of technical drawings and evidence of good security practice for big customers. Visitor businesses in the city centre often trade from listed buildings, which makes Wi-Fi coverage tricky, and they need booking systems, payment terminals and websites that load quickly on mobile. Cross-border trading is common, so some businesses deal with both English and Welsh suppliers and customers.

Frequently asked questions
Can you support a Chester business across the Welsh border?
Yes. Because our support is remote from Mansfield, we help businesses in Chester, Flintshire and Wrexham in the same way. Plans start from £25 a month + VAT and ad-hoc work is £45 an hour + VAT.
Do you cover Ellesmere Port, Northwich and Deeside?
Yes. We work with businesses in Ellesmere Port, Northwich, Frodsham, Deeside, Mold and Wrexham. Anything that genuinely needs a site visit is quoted upfront. Because everything starts with a remote session, there is no travel charge for the time it takes to diagnose a problem.
Our shop in the Rows has poor Wi-Fi at the back. Can you help?
Yes. Old stone and timber buildings block signals. We can review your router remotely and suggest a mesh system or extra access point, placed so it does not need invasive cabling.
