Ashfield Manufacturing Relocated HQ from London to Southampton

The Challenge

Ashfield Manufacturing's London head office costs were eating into margins, and most staff lived south of the M25 anyway.

Overview

An industrial components manufacturer needed to move their administrative headquarters closer to their Hampshire production facility.

The Solution

MatchMyOffice found a modern office in Southampton Ocean Village, 20 minutes from their factory, at less than a third of their London costs.

Results Achieved

• Annual office costs reduced by 68%
• Average staff commute shortened by 45 minutes
• All 22 HQ staff agreed to relocate
