St Neots is a fast growing Town with excellent access to the national road network being on the A1 and near the M11. We have a main line railway station and are in easy reach of several regional airports. The local Plan sees us as a growth centre for population and job growth. We are in the Cambridge Sub-Region and in the middle of the Government's strategic Cambridge/Oxford Corridor. Unemployment is very low. We are on the main routes to the East Coast Ports and into the heart of EU markets.

St Neots has a good representation of major manufacturing with several global players having factories in the town, such as ABB Automation Ltd, Bosch Rexroth Ltd, Sealed Air Ltd and Gates Hydraulics Ltd. Apart from these big hitters we have a wide range of medium and small companies making a wide variety of products, with an emphasis on engineering. We have successful printers like TSG Creative Solutions Ltd, Trenton Box Ltd and A C Black Ltd. Hunts Post Business Award winners include Prosol Electronics Ltd and the innovative Dufaylite Developments Ltd. Many of our Manufacturers work together in a Manufacturers Club whose co-operative work is attracting widespread interest. They also work closely with local schools, the Huntingdon Regional College, who have a local annexe, and regional centres of excellence like the Institute of Manufacturing in Cambridge University.

The service sector has a star player with the Wyboston Lakes Ltd complex (including the Robinson Centre) just by the AI, on the edge of St Neots. This 350 acre site has won many awards and is a national player in training provision and conferencing, plus it has varied leisure facilities, (a golf course, a water sports’ centre and fitness club). It has high quality accommodation and eating facilities open to the public. In the construction industry we have big players like Kier and Laing Utilities.

The Town Council sees the matching growth of population and employment as a key sustainability strategy. Keeping people living and working in the town will keep it a vibrant community and keep people off the road work network. They will continue to support an expanding infrastructure of business parks, like the Colmworth and Alpha Business Parks, that will further this strategic aim.
