Enterprise Campus Announces Major Milestone as First Units Released

Ambitious businesses looking for a base in the thriving West Cumbria economy are invited to register their interest in the first two units at a state-of-the-art enterprise campus. 

iSH Enterprise Campus in Cleator Moor has announced its first two units are now available for expressions of interest. The units are due to be available from Spring 2027.

The campus will serve as a dynamic ecosystem, bringing together both emerging and established enterprises, from large corporations to SMEs and micro businesses, operating across manufacturing and advanced technology sectors.

It will provide strategic support to the nuclear industry while also fostering growth across other critical regional sectors.

The development of the site forms part of the wider regeneration programme being delivered across West Cumbria by iSH focused upon delivering economic growth opportunities around robotics, AI and advanced engineering and manufacturing.

The site has been designed with sustainability and long-term growth in mind. Each unit will benefit from integrated green energy infrastructure, including solar power and heat pumps and an EPC ‘A’ rating. EV charging points and on-site parking are also included to support operational efficiency and accessibility. 


The Industrial Solutions Hub (iSH) Enterprise Campus is a £50m economic regeneration initiative led by Cumberland Council with funding and support from the Government’s Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, through Town Deal and Levelling Up programmes, and other strategic partners including the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority, Sellafield Ltd and Cumbria Local Enterprise Partnership. 

The first two units available on the site are Unit 9 which comprises 28,137 sq ft, currently configured as four units of approximately 7,034 sq ft each, and Unit 12 offers 35,338 sq ft, arranged as five units of 7,068 sq ft each. 

These flexible, high-specification spaces are designed to support a wide range of industrial, engineering and specialist technical operations.

Gary McKeating, Managing Director of iSH, said: “We are delighted to announce that these first units on the site are now released and available to businesses for their expressions of interest.  

“It’s the first step in this development which will bring together businesses of all shapes and sizes, all with an ambition to deliver innovations which will benefit the local, regional and national economy.

“As the site develops it will also make a big positive socio-economic impact across our communities.” 

Leader of Cumberland Council, Cllr Mark Fryer, said: “This is an exciting project that will harness a wide range of benefits and opportunities for the area going forward.

“I am very proud that the project has reached the stage where expressions of interest are being sought for the first industrial units on the site.” 

Organizations interested in securing space at the iSH Enterprise Campus are encouraged to register their interest at the earliest opportunity. 

Expressions of interest can be submitted via the online form on iSH’s website (www.ishco.co.uk) or by email to: info@ishco.co.uk
