Welcome to Matchworks
Matchworks – South Liverpool’s architecturally iconic business district – is brimming with brilliantly designed workspaces, studios and light industrial units that are home to a mix of crafters and grafters, from small start-ups to national occupiers.
Originally built in 1923 as Bryant & May’s flagship Match Factory, this multi award-winning scheme now offers some of the best designed workspace in South Liverpool, with the estate totalling 163,769 sq ft of flexible office, leisure, studio, and light industrial space. Its versatility means it’s home to all kinds of businesses, from ‘one-man-bands’ to multi-national PLCs.
With its striking architecture surrounded by plenty of green space and a host of great facilities including on-site bike storage, working at Matchworks enables you to go beyond the 9–5 by living well and working better.
We’ve also got some exciting plans in the works, upgrading workspaces at Matchworks where our customers can meet, collaborate and connect.
We hope you can join us.

The Climbing Hangar at Matchworks
We’ve reached new heights with this awesome amenity; our brand-new Climbing Hangar and flagship centre which will ‘peak’ the interests of everyone working in and around Matchworks.
This exciting new space is packed with bouldering walls. Don’t know what bouldering is? Basically it’s a form of rock climbing performed on small artificial walls without the use of ropes or harnesses.
There are super surroundings too; open social spaces for you to hang out with colleagues and friends, and a café to refuel in.

We’re continually investing in our spaces to make them great places to come to work. At Matchworks, plans are well underway to create spaces where our customers can meet, collaborate and connect like never before.
Think breakout spaces, smart meeting rooms, new pod areas, showers, cycle storage and even a self-serve café – it’s all part of our commitment to creating high-quality workspaces that evolve with our customers’ needs. We’re keeping the details under wraps for now, but trust us, you’ll want to see what’s coming.
