Superbike Factory on the move

Having outgrown its original Cottage Street basean The Superbike Factory has expanded into a new site on Snape Road, Hurdsfield Industrial Estate in Macclesfield.

The company says it outgrew its Cottage Street base and needed to relocate to “more suitable larger premises and allow opportunity for further future growth”.

The new facility offers a storage and distribution hub including ancillary workshop, offices and sales.

A planning statement said: “The proposed development will enable the continued growth of this local business, which would contribute towards boosting the local economy through an increase in employment opportunities and spending.

“It would also allow the business to continue operating from Macclesfield, retaining the existing 148 staff and likely [leading to the] creation of additional jobs.”

Planning officers have recommended approval to Cheshire East Council’s planning committee which meets on 4 December.
