The development of the Cross Hands Food Park enhances the County's reputation by adding value to the 'Garden of Wales' and for those that buy its produce. Cross Hands Food Park offers everything that the modern food producer needs to flourish.
Supported by financial incentives and imaginative strategies at both local and national level Cross Hands Food Park, set up some 12 years ago, is strategically located near the A48 / M4 at Junction 49, some twelve miles north of Swansea, and an hour's drive west of Cardiff. It offers direct links with the UK motorway network via the M4 and the 'Heads of the Valleys' A465 provides direct access to markets in the Midlands. The M4 is part of the arterial Euro-Route to and from Ireland, across the UK and into the continent.
The dedicated Food Park is based on 20.24 hectares (50 acres), fully serviced with excellent infrastructure in place. It is well placed at the heart of a vibrant food producing county with numerous high quality suppliers based nearby thus reducing food miles for production.
The dedicated Food Park, incorporating land for development and food production Incubator units is the ideal base for all major food processing activities, is uncluttered and has full access roads in place. This is why key businesses have committed to growing their businesses here. Irish food giants Dawn Meats, despite other options and locations available across Europe, have twice expanded in the County. They now occupy a 18,580 sq m (200,000 sq ft) state of the art food processing facility on 8.09 hectares (20 acres) of the 20.24 hectares (50 acre) site which they built in 2002.
Castell Howell Foods relocated their Head Office and distribution centre here in 2007 occupying 4,645 sq m (50,000 sq ft). The incubator units have proved successful and have been fully occupied since completion in 2004.
One of the first occupiers was Gower View Foods a food packing and dairy processing facility. The Company initially occupied a 464.5 sq m (5,000 sq ft) unit - they have now expanded to 1,393.5 sq m (15,000 sq ft). They are recognised as the largest independent butter packer in the UK, with the result that the workforce has increased to over 50 in the last few years.
The offer at Cross Hands is that of quality local indigenous and International Companies, Wales' largest Independent Wholesaler and a local refrigerated transport service - all on the door step. There is also a feeling of belonging within the companies on the Food Park who regularly help and trade with each other.
