Major office employers in the town include Hilton, PWC, KPMG, TK Maxx, JD Weatherspoon, ASOS, Epson, Allwyn and Smith & Nephew. The area to the north-east is designated as the Colne Valley Strategic Development Area which is intended to be a catalyst for change and aims to deliver a significant number of new dwellings before 2036.
