Ransomes Industrial Estate

Ransomes Industrial Estate, also known as Ransomes Europark is combined retail and business park located in Priory Heath Ward, Ipswich, on the southeastern edge of Ipswich in Suffolk, UK. It takes its name from Ransomes, Sims & Jefferies, which still maintains a presence on the park.

Predominantly the park consists of light industrial and logistics companies, although there is a growing number of retailers and offices including the head office for KDM International and MSC UK.

In February 2008 it was announced that IKEA are in talks to take on part of the estate occupied by Crane Fluid Systems for a new store.[2]
