Source: https://dijitulsupport.co.uk/locations/corby/

> Corby rebuilt itself around distribution after the steelworks closed, and its warehouses, packaging firms and recruitment agencies all depend on working email and PCs. dijitul fixes their problems remotely from Mansfield, and any visit is priced before it is booked. Support starts at £25 a month + VAT on a plan, or £45 an hour + VAT ad hoc.

Corby is one of the most distinctive towns in the East Midlands. It grew rapidly in the twentieth century around a huge steelworks, run for many years by Stewarts and Lloyds, which recruited heavily from Scotland. That Scottish heritage is still part of the town's identity. Steel making ended in 1980, but tube making continues: Tata Steel still produces steel tubes in Corby.

After the steelworks closed, Corby rebuilt its economy around manufacturing, food production and, above all, distribution. Its location between the A14, A43 and A6003 and its large industrial estates, such as those at Willowbrook and Earlstrees, have attracted warehouses, packaging firms and manufacturers. The town regained a passenger railway station in 2009, with trains to London St Pancras, after decades without one, and large areas of new housing have since been built around the town.

The town centre has been redeveloped and includes the Corby Cube civic building, and North Northamptonshire Council covers the area. Rockingham Castle and the surrounding villages add a rural and tourism element.

Corby's support needs come mostly from its industrial base. Distribution centres need Wi-Fi coverage across large buildings, label printers, rugged devices for staff and reliable Microsoft 365 for offices. Manufacturers and packaging firms need networks, backups, careful Windows updates on production-linked PCs, and the cyber security basics that larger customers increasingly require. Growing numbers of small businesses and sole traders in the town want websites that work well on phones, email on their own domain and help showing up in local search. Recruitment and staffing agencies serving the warehouses need reliable email and well-managed laptops.

We support Corby businesses remotely from Mansfield. Anything that genuinely needs a visit is quoted upfront.
