“These figures speak for themselves. It’s been a really successful period for Embankment in terms of attracting businesses to our city and securing new leasing agreements. The story behind these figures highlights that the decision for the City Council to invest in this development and on-going regeneration of our city was indeed the right one.

“The recent successes further prove that Embankment meets the unique needs of a range of tenants, offering businesses the solutions they need, and whilst the buildings are important the wrap around components, in terms of infrastructure, accessibility, support, transport links and available staffing resource reflect what we already know, that Salford is a great place to do business. As we welcome the likes of Deloitte, AECOM and x+why and others, what I’m most pleased about are the opportunities that these businesses create for our residents and the city itself.”
