Connecting Manufacturing Companies to Local Authorities

Updated: Dec 9

In today’s fast-paced manufacturing landscape, it’s more important than ever for local

authorities to connect with businesses and showcase the resources, guidance, and opportunities available in their areas. That’s why Manufacturers Hub has launched an exciting new feature—the Local Authorities category. Designed specifically for local councils, this initiative provides a dedicated county-specific page for every UK authority, making it easier than ever for businesses to find and engage with you.


Are Manufacturing Companies struggling to find Local Authorities?

Manufacturers Hub is providing you with a way to get found!

Local authorities often face challenges in ensuring businesses know about the support available to them. From grants and tax reliefs to training initiatives and networking opportunities, these resources can remain untapped if manufacturers don’t know where to look. That’s where the Local Authorities category comes in.


By bringing all this information into one easily accessible location, Manufacturers Hub ensures:

  • Your authority’s efforts are visible to the businesses that need them most.

  • Local businesses can discover grants, funding, and initiatives tailored to their needs.

  • Direct connections between manufacturers and local councils for better engagement and partnerships.


Making Authorities Easy to Find

One of the biggest challenges for local councils and authorities is visibility. Businesses can’t reach out to you if they don’t know you exist. With Manufacturers Hub, your council’s information, services, and opportunities will be featured prominently on a dedicated page within your county’s section. We’re making it simple for businesses to find you, learn about your programs, and engage with the support you offer.

Importantly, the entire purpose of this initiative is to point manufacturing companies in the right direction to find the help that is on offer to them. Manufacturers Hub is not here to take over or replace your existing main websites but rather to act as a guide, helping businesses get to where they need to go to access the support and resources you provide.


Advertise within Your Own Page

Take your visibility even further by utilizing your dedicated page on Manufacturers Hub.

Showcase your initiatives, events, and key messages in a way that directs businesses to your primary websites and resources. Your page serves as a targeted tool to ensure your programs get noticed by the companies that need them the most, giving you a way of directing businesses back to your website!
