Sudlows delivers new look to Cotton Traders head office

Sudlows has completed a full office fit out , including all electrical and data works , for Cotton Traders new offices in Altrincham .
The newly acquired 10 year leased office is set amongst several other existing Cotton Traders head office buildings , allowing its business to grow together . As the move involved the relocation of most of the company ’ s main customer facing staffing structure , it was critical that the project be completed as quickly and efficiently as possible . A project of this scale would usually take around 7-8 weeks , however the Sudlows Enterprise Services team completed it in just four weeks , with the Cotton Traders team moving in just a few short hours after project completion .
Sudlows provided the new office with an entirely new comms room , cabling and a newly installed connectivity infrastructure including high speed fibre cabling . These installations allowed Cotton Traders to function at an optimal work rate , improving its services across the board as well as overall employee experience . Additional to this , Sudlows was able to fit out the entire office , from the construction of partition walls , glass offices to installing a new kitchen and functioning collaborative workspace .
