The insurance provider Vitality has confirmed its relocation to Stockport Exchange.
In what is the largest office deal in South Manchester since 2019 and the second biggest Grade-A office transaction of the year across Greater Manchester, the move will see over 1,000 Vitality employees move into 3 Stockport Exchange, occupying 45,000 sq ft of premium business space across four floors. The landmark letting represents one of the strongest corporate endorsements of Stockport’s regeneration to date and further establishes the town as a leading destination for ambitious, high-profile businesses to locate.
It also signals the next chapter in Stockport Exchange’s transformation, unlocking the next phase, as part of the town’s wider £1 billion regeneration,
Vitality, which also has UK offices in London and Bournemouth, will move from Wellington Road next year to join an impressive roster of leading businesses already based in the BREEAM Excellent offices, including Britain’s biggest bus operator Stagecoach, music retailer MusicMagpie, global chemical company BASF, leading property company Indurent, and ONP Solicitors.
With 1,095 jobs already at Stockport Exchange, the team from Vitality will take the total number of employees at the thriving site to over 2,000.
Leader of Stockport Council, Cllr Mark Roberts, said:
“Vitality’s decision to move into Stockport Exchange is a huge vote of confidence in our town and its future. This is more than just a relocation; it’s a clear signal that Stockport is now firmly on the map as a leading business destination in the North West and a key player in Greater Manchester’s economic growth.
“Creating a booming business district in an accessible town centre location, right by the station and the award-winning Interchange, has proven to create new opportunities and jobs that benefit everyone in our borough.
“Our UK-leading regeneration programme is delivering the right environment for businesses to thrive, and we’re proud to welcome Vitality as part of this exciting journey.”
