Stoford signs off on MiTek manufacturing base
A huge industrial premises has been completed in Worcestershire, set to become a new UK and European operations hub for construction technology firm MiTek.
Delivered by main contractor Benniman, the 278,048 sq ft development is the first to be delivered on the southern extension at Worcester Six Business Park.
The site was pre-sold to MiTek in 2024, an undisclosed deal which was described by the business park as the largest pre-sale in Worcestershire for the past 20 years.
James Morgan, Managing Director at MiTek: “Opening our home at Worcester Six marks a new chapter in MiTek’s journey as an offsite construction enabler.
“This facility establishes our European hub for streamlining design, manufacturing, and innovation, and offers a collaborative space where partners across the industry can co-create solutions that accelerate timber construction and raise standards for everyone.”
The extension of Worcester Six is part of a long-term development strategy for the site, which is included in the South Worcestershire Development Plan. Once complete, phase two will deliver up to a further 680,000 sq ft of employment accommodation.
Edward Peel, Director at Stoford, said: “MiTek’s decision to establish its EMEA headquarters at Worcester Six is significant for the region. It further strengthens Worcestershire’s reputation as a hub for international business.
“We’re extremely proud to have achieved practical completion on this state-of-the-art facility which will support new jobs, attract long-term investment, and contribute meaningfully to the region’s economic growth for years to come.”
Councillor Alan Amos, Cabinet Member with Responsibility for Business and Skills at Worcestershire County Council, added: “This is great news for Worcestershire and for local people.
“MiTek choosing to base its European headquarters here shows the confidence global companies have in our area. Developments like this bring skilled jobs, investment and long-term benefits for the local economy.”
