Milton Keynes

Milton Keynes, situated in Buckinghamshire has a fantastic central location which makes it easily accessible from many major cities, London being only 35 minutes by train. This makes the area extremely popular for people and businesses alike and is highlighted by the fact that the population of the city has more than quadrupled in the past 40 years.

These key facts are some of the main reasons that the city of Milton Keynes is reported as being one of the fastest growing cities in the UK, and will continue to be the country's number one city for growth in the coming years.

At Pitman Training our aim over the coming year is to continue effectively growing our presence across the country in vibrant cities with strong economic growth and we believe Milton Keynes to be a key area which goes hand in hand with our aim. 

The city was ranked by Experian as the place with the best growth prospects for jobs and output for 2013-2017, which was again one of the highest in the country and they help lead the way in the country's economic growth. Average salaries and property costs are significantly lower than London and the South East which means lower overall operating costs which in turn means more profitability for small businesses in the area, such as a Pitman Training Centre.

Many large companies have their headquarters located in the city, an example of these are Argos, Mercedez Benz, Domino's Pizza and Volkswagen Financial Services is also building a new headquarters that can accommodate more than 1,300 people.

Continued reinvestment and further expansions ensure that the Milton Keynes success story keeps growing. Pitman Training Group are eager to be a part of this success, all we are looking for is the right franchise partner to have the ambition and ability to push or strong product and heritage brand in this proven profitable and successful area.
