Cityco Management Company
Cityco is Manchester’s city centre management company. Cityco is an independent, member-based organisation, which represents businesses in the city centre, primarily leisure, hotels, retailers, commercial property and professional services. The company’s main objective is to help create the trading conditions for business in the city centre to prosper; a broad aim, which we work towards in a variety of strategic and operational ways.
We are well-networked within the city and our close links with the City Council, the Police, transport bodies and other organisations allow us to help members resolve security and environmental problems. We lobby on behalf of members, for example, to improve late night public transport and regulatory frameworks, and undertake initiatives, including research, to inform the long-term strategic direction of the city centre.
Cityco members are given exclusive access to market intelligence relevant to their market sectors and, through the Cityconversations breakfast seminars, have the opportunity to hear about developments on transport infrastructure, business and commercial issues.
Cityco also promotes the city nationally and internationally as a leisure and business destination, running inventive and successful marketing campaigns such as the recent Christmas trading campaign to increase footfall to the city centre.
