Home to many businesses, Broadstone Mill has recently welcomed a new tenant, Chilli Apparel who are a global clothing distributor.
Once the largest Cotton Mill in Europe the large red brick building that is Broadstone Mill has been a landmark in Stockport for over 100 years.

Today, the mill has been transformed to provide a range of commercial space, among other things. Offices have been designed to enhance the mill’s original features, while meeting all the requirements of today’s businesses. Broadstone Mill is the ideal location for emerging businesses with fully-serviced offices, parking and excellent transport links.
Chilli Apparel are a family business with over 30 years’ experience, manufacturing in their own factories in China and supplying customers all over the world. As well as their new purpose built head office here in Stockport, they also have an International Sales Office in California, USA.
A bespoke unit built exactly to their requirements, within Broadstone Mill, opened its doors to the customers on the 2nd of December 2013.
A Chilli Apparel spokesperson said:
“With our business expanding rapidly, having nearly doubled in size over the last year we needed new offices and a warehouse to accommodate this growth. Built entirely of glass by local tradesmen our offices include meeting rooms, a kitchen and three fully fitted showrooms perfect for displaying our extensive product lines. With one showroom solely dedicated to the Devon based Quba brand, kitted out to look like one of their unique shops, full of repurposed wood, vintage boat oars and hand painted signs this contrasts nicely with the industrial feel of the mill office. Broadstone Mill was overall an ideal choice for us, situated close to the airport and city centre it’s a perfect location for people to visit and with a shop and cafe downstairs we always have somewhere to take clients to lunch. Added to this we were able to take over the ground floor warehouse, which meant that we didn’t have to split our business up at such an important time for the company.”
Broadstone Mill are hoping to complete their 2nd phase of refurbishment on the 4th floor very soon, creating more office space and bringing more clients to the Heatons/Reddish area of Stockport.
