Inward Investment Plan

Read about our new inward investment plan - Unlocking Croydon's Potential.

Our new 3-year economic inward investment plan sets out how we will bring partners, developers, investors and Croydon’s diverse communities together to support the regeneration of the town and district centres, and create economic opportunity for all.

Unlocking Croydon's Potential sets out the challenges Croydon has faced and how these can be overcome to bring investment into the borough.

We will work with businesses and residents to develop a new sustainable plan to regenerate the town centre, seek inward investment and apply for grants to revive the high streets and district hubs.

The Executive Mayor of Croydon is bringing together key partners who will work together to bring more investment into the borough to benefit all residents.

The benefits to the borough will:

  • create new jobs
  • fill empty shops
  • make investment work harder for residents and businesses
  • attract exciting new businesses into the borough

Other benefits for residents will be:

  • enhanced community spaces - as well as cultural and social venues
  • improved skills and training
  • increased safety and security 
  • a culture of enterprise created by attracting new businesses
