The inaugural Bridgwater & Burnham Business Club event marked an important occasion as the Conservative Parliamentary candidate for the new Bridgwater Constituency, Ashley Fox, was introduced to the business community. The event, held at the 37 Club in Puriton, provided a platform for local business leaders to engage with Ashley Fox directly, sharing their concerns and comments.
The highlight of the event was a presentation by Paul Lowndes, Programme Director at Gravity, who discussed the exciting developments at the 616-acre Enterprise Zone in Puriton, Somerset, which is the location for the forthcoming £4 billion Agratas Gigafactory. The Gravity site represents a significant opportunity for economic growth and innovation in the region.
Ashley Fox expressed his enthusiasm for the project and his commitment to supporting local businesses, “The ongoing development at Gravity is a game-changer for Bridgwater, Burnham and the wider Somerset region. It symbolises our commitment to innovation and job creation. I am dedicated to supporting this site and ensuring that our community benefits from these exciting advancements.”
