J700 Group fuels North West Expansion with new strategic hub

We're expanding.jpg.jpg

Lancashire-based managed IT and Cyber Security specialist, J700 Group, has announced the opening of a new office at Europa House in Bury.

The move marks a significant milestone in the firm’s regional growth strategy, strengthening its presence across the Lancashire and Greater Manchester corridor.

The expansion into the Barcroft Street landmark follows a period of sustained growth for the company. By establishing a physical footprint in Bury, J700 Group aims to provide more localised, responsive support to its increasing portfolio of clients in the southern reaches of the county and beyond.

Deepening Regional Roots 

While many in the IT sector are moving toward purely remote models, J700 Group is doubling down on its local partner philosophy. The new Bury office is designed to serve as a collaborative hub, allowing the team to deliver high-compliance IT infrastructure and cyber-resilience strategies with the face-to-face service the company is known for.

Jon Cundliffe, managing director at J700 Group, said: "Our expansion to Europa House is a direct response to the needs of our clients.

”In an era where cyber threats are becoming increasingly sophisticated, North West SMEs are looking for more than just a help desk, they want a local partner they can trust and this new office allows us to grow our specialist team while remaining right at the heart of the business community we serve."

Securing the 2026 Business Landscape 

The expansion comes at a time when digital resilience is a top priority for Lancashire’s business leaders.

J700 Group has been at the forefront of helping SMEs navigate the shift toward AI-driven security challenges and high-compliance cloud migrations. The Bury hub will further enhance the firm’s capacity to deliver these critical services.

Community Integration 

In the coming weeks, the J700 team plans to integrate fully with the local ecosystem at Europa House and the wider Bury area.

"Bury is a fantastic, vibrant business hub," Jon added. "We’re not just moving into a building, we’re joining a community. We look forward to meeting our new neighbors and helping the region’s SMEs stay secure, efficient and ready for the future."
