Camera manufacturer Canon establishes Birchwood Park base

Imaging and information technology manufacturer Canon has secured new space at Birchwood Park in Warrington.

The Japan-headquartered firm, which previously had an office at Birchwood Boulevard, will move its Northern regional sales team into 104 Dalton Avenue.

The new 3,000 sq ft base will serve as Canon’s Business Centre for Central England and the North, due to the development’s transport links with other regional business hubs.

Canon’s corporate and marketing communications manager, Sarah-Jane Dale, said: “Ensuring that our staff remain motivated and enjoy coming to work is our most important priority, so when a suitable space became available at Birchwood Park it was the clear choice for the relocation of our Regional Sales Team.

“A key factor when deciding to move offices was ensuring that our business values were mirrored in the office environment.”

She added: “The professional Grade A office space at Dalton Avenue guaranteed that we had the perfect workspace to showcase our evolving collection of technology solutions to existing and prospective clients.”

Birchwood Park is managed by real estate firm PATRIZIA UK.

Martin O’Rourke, the park’s commercial director, commented: “We understand how important it is for Canon to have a presence in the North, especially in Birchwood Park, and their decision to relocate to Dalton Avenue is a clear endorsement of Birchwood Park’s position as a destination for international businesses in the North of England.

“Our significant investment in road improvements around Birchwood Park will ensure that Canon has the best connections to its extensive business network.”
