In Autumn 2023 the Government awarded Castleford a £20 million investment boost, adding to an earlier £23.9 million Town Funds injection in 2021. A flagship project is to be the transformation of Sagar Street into a creative quarter to advance the fast growing creative and digital information sector.
Castleford boasts a number of world leading companies, with the pharmaceutical group TEVA UK having a base here, as well as the food & beverage giant Haribo recently investing in a £22 million production plant in the vicinity.
The town sustains a strong business & professional services community, and companies specialising in financial tax & tax assurance and legal services are a good source of high value appointments. Across the wider area, manufacturing in process & chemicals, and textiles are well represented. Further opportunities are in health & social care, education, public sector & not-for-profit, construction, engineering, retail & travel, hospitality & leisure.
