Supporting Peterborough businesses
Peterborough is a cathedral city that has grown quickly since its new town expansion from the 1970s, and it has become one of the main logistics locations in the east of England. The A1(M) and the A47 meet here, and the East Coast Main Line puts London King's Cross under an hour away, so large distribution centres, e-commerce fulfilment warehouses and haulage firms are a major part of the local economy.
The city also has a strong engineering base. Perkins Engines, part of Caterpillar, has made diesel engines in Peterborough for decades, and a wider supply chain of engineering and manufacturing firms surrounds it. Office employment is concentrated in areas such as Lynch Wood and the city centre, covering financial services, professional firms and public sector bodies. Anglia Ruskin University opened its ARU Peterborough campus in 2022, adding a university presence focused on practical and technical subjects. Hampton, to the south, is one of the largest new developments in the area, bringing new homes and local businesses.
The IT and website needs we see from Peterborough firms include:
- Logistics and e-commerce businesses whose order systems, label printers and courier integrations must work all day.
- Online retailers running WooCommerce or Shopify, where a broken shipping rule or payment gateway hits sales immediately.
- Engineering suppliers with drawings and customer data that need proper backups and protection from ransomware.
- Small offices in the city centre that need Microsoft 365, Teams and shared files set up properly for hybrid work.
dijitul supports Peterborough businesses remotely from Mansfield. We fix online shops, set up and secure Microsoft 365, manage PCs and laptops, sort out email delivery and set up backups. Where a job needs someone on site, we say so first and quote it.
