Wacker Neuson is internationally renowned as a leading manufacturer of high quality construction vehicles and construction equipment. Their products are used in the construction, landscaping, gardening, architecture and agricultural industries, as well as by local authorities and companies in industries such as the recycling and energy. 

Wacker Neuson, which has its group headquarters in Munich, has been a tenant on the original business park for 18 months and already employs 20 people in Stafford with an increasing tendency.

Recognising the benefits of Stafford as a base for its UK operations, Wacker Neuson has purchased plots 6, 7 and 8 which extend to 3.8 acres with a contract to design and build a new headquarters facility. The brand new 45,000 sq ft UK headquarters will house offices, warehousing, a parts store and workshop.

Richard Harrison, UK managing director of Wacker Neuson, says “Expanding on Beacon Business Park in Stafford is a natural move for us. This has proved to be an ideal location for us with great staff and excellent access to all the key distribution routes. The onsite management team on the business park really look after us and have worked hard with their design team to help us bring this project to fruition.”
