Supporting Crewe businesses
Crewe is a railway town and a car town. It grew around the Grand Junction Railway's works in the 1840s, and Crewe station remains one of the busiest rail junctions in the country, with rail engineering and maintenance businesses still operating nearby. The town's biggest name today is Bentley Motors, which designs and builds its luxury cars at its Pyms Lane factory and head office, supporting a large supply chain of engineering, design and automotive firms.
Crewe Business Park and the industrial estates along the A500 and M6 corridor house manufacturers, distribution companies, offices and contact centres. The town centre is being regenerated, including new markets and a refurbished bus station. Nearby Nantwich, a historic market town, is home to many professional firms, retailers and food businesses, and the surrounding South Cheshire countryside is a major dairy farming area.
Automotive and engineering suppliers in Crewe face strict security expectations from their customers, especially around design data, CAD files and access controls. MFA, encrypted laptops, patching and supplier security questionnaires are common topics, and the automotive industry's own information security assessments are increasingly passed down the supply chain. Rail businesses need secure mobile working for engineers on the track. Smaller firms in Crewe and Nantwich want reliable Microsoft 365, maintained websites and help when email or laptops go wrong. Farms and rural businesses need better connectivity and support with farm management and accounts software.
