A COMPANY building "chopper" motorbikes has relocated to a North Yorkshire business park.
North-East Custom Choppers manufactures custom- made bikes and motorcycle components.
It has moved to the Gallowfields Trading Estate, in Richmond, from Northumberland. The estate is run by the district council.
Abi Bromirskyj, the council's assistant economic development officer, said: "We are really pleased to welcome North-East Custom Choppers to Gallowfields, especially as the move will create two jobs for local people."
Michael Danielson, the company's co-owner, said: "It's great to move into Richmond and there are many advantages for us, including the town's central location within the UK, its close proximity to the A1(M) for trade connections and its reasonably-priced business premises."
Two new businesses have also moved to council-run workshop space at the Reeth Dales Centre. Textile artist Caroline Dunn and craftsman Tim Rook have taken premises at the Swaledale complex.
