Automotive in Hammersmith & Fulham
The business environment
Hammersmith & Fulham is a west London borough built around two major commercial hubs: Hammersmith, with its cluster of office towers around the Broadway and Butterfield Green, and White City, where the BBC's former Television Centre and the Westfield London shopping centre anchor a growing campus of media, technology and life-sciences occupiers including Imperial College's White City campus. Fulham to the south is more residential and retail-led, centred on the North End Road and Fulham Broadway, while Shepherd's Bush and Olympia add further pockets of office, exhibition and events activity.
Why businesses locate here
Businesses are drawn to Hammersmith & Fulham for its Underground connectivity, with the District, Piccadilly, Hammersmith & City and Circle lines all serving Hammersmith station, plus the Elizabeth line and Central line at nearby White City and Shepherd's Bush. The A4 and A40 give fast road access west towards Heathrow and east into central London, and the borough sits within a short journey of the West End while offering more competitive commercial rents than the City or West End cores.
The local economy
The borough's economy has shifted markedly over the past decade, from a traditional office and light-industrial base towards media, broadcasting, technology and life sciences, driven largely by the redevelopment of the old BBC Television Centre site and the expansion of Imperial College London's White City innovation campus. Fulham and Hammersmith Broadway retain a strong retail, hospitality and professional-services presence, giving the borough a varied client base for local IT and technology suppliers.
