Business in York

York runs on tourism, rail and a growing professional and technology base. The visitor economy built on the Minster and the medieval centre is the most visible part, filling hotels, restaurants and retail on a pattern that peaks hard; behind it sit a substantial rail engineering and research presence, insurance and professional services, and a university feeding a bioscience and technology cluster. Almost the entire commercial centre sits inside the city walls in listed or conservation-area buildings, which decides what can be installed far more than any technical consideration does.

Sectors we work with around York

York — common questions

Our York premises is inside the walls and listed. What is actually possible?

More than most people expect, provided the cabling is what gets designed around. Cloud telephony removes the on-site cabinet entirely, so the intrusive part of a traditional install disappears; where cabling cannot be run, wireless links and carefully placed access points usually cover it without anyone applying for consent to touch the fabric.

Tourist season doubles our trade. Can phone capacity follow it?

Yes, and it should be arranged that way rather than sized for February. Licences and mobile connections can be added for the season and dropped afterwards, calls can queue with a message rather than returning engaged tones, and overflow can route elsewhere. Missing calls in peak season is the expensive version of this problem.
