Welcome to the consultation website for the Origin Business Improvement District

A five year, £2.2million added value business‑led plan to drive transformational change across Ellesmere Port’s industrial estates and business parks.

Led by the private sector, and developed in partnership with key public‑sector organisations, our draft proposal for a Business Improvement District has three objectives:

  1. To build a connected business community that speaks with one clear voice.
  2. To create a cleaner, greener, and more sustainable environment for businesses.
  3. To ensure a safer and more secure location for businesses and their employees.

The benefits for business will include:

£2.2million business led investment into improving business parks throughout Origin

Image and signage enhancements

Lobbying for better transport links and improved highways whilst tackling flooding risks

A new and improved approach to tackling business crime and fly tipping

A stronger voice for businesses

A cleaner, more appealing environment for our employees, customers and visitors

Local Business Leadership and Influence
