A Sense of community with like minded entrepreneurs
It's amazing how people inter-trade on rural business parks. Traffic free journey Go against the traffic to work, head out of town rather than queue! Ample parking
Most Rural Business Centres have plenty of free parking, for you, your employees and most importantly, your clients. Carefully managed and secure locations Remember these Rural Business Centres are often next to or near the landlords home or business and are therefore well looked after. Lifestyle locations Have a peaceful walk/run at lunchtime, host a client barbeque or just get that feeling that work is not so bad on those hot summer days. Great communications and ICT Every provider of Rural Business Centres knows how important it is to get decent communications to their site. Environmentally responsible How soon before your business is required to calculate its carbon footprint? Settings full of character
Show your clients that you have a truly individual business interested
in how it is perceived - Rural Business Centres help brand development and
deliver differentiation for businesses.
Relaxing surroundings
Step outside into the countryside, not just the car park.
Over the past decade there have been a significant number of businesses that
have moved from urban locations into rural business centres. These Rural Business Centre’s
offer greater value for money, with many now offering better office specifications
and services than their urban counterparts. The environmental credentials
of RBC are also often stronger than offices in towns too. Why rent from
a faceless institutionalised landlord when you can rent from someone who
cares about you and your business? After all, your landlord is a small business
owner too!
If your business needs new premises, don't forget to consider a Rural Business
Centre near you. You'll be surprised at what there is on offer and if you still
need convincing see what these businesses have to say about their Offices in
the Countryside.
'Since moving to a rural business centre in 2007, we have found that our business has thrived. We believe that it is down to good management and products, but I am very aware that our staff need to be happy in the surroundings to be effective. Our clients are impressed with our business and office and continually use our services. I certainly think that a suitable office in the countryside is a great place to do business.'

'Amerdale decided to locate its business on a rural business park, partly due to where the directors of the business live, but also because it offered a great working environment, a place to recruit and retain good staff and a place which is conducive to good working practices, marrying business with quality of life.' Mark Hancock, Director of Amerdale llp, Broughton Hall Business Park, Skipton, North Yorkshire - August 2010
