Cadishead in Space

This blogs presents the unfurling corporate history of Irlam and Cadishead. In a way it is a vague and amateurish homage to the film and book Robinson in Space (in which Irlam and Cadishead get a brief mention). The method is simple. Whilst acknowledging the towns' rich personal and sporting heritage, this blogs aims to provide commentary on the industrial development of Irlam and Cadishead's economic identity in a complex global world. Comments are much appreciated.

Business centre paying for new tenants to move in

The Woodrow Business Centre is located close to Tescos in Irlam. In an interesting spin on place marketing, inward moving businesses are being offered relocation costs of up to £20,000 to encourage them to move into the centre. This kind of makes sense if the new businesses are coming from outside the region, but there is little logic to simply attracting businesses from other local locations.
