Software for Alfreton businesses
Alfreton is a market town in the Amber Valley district of Derbyshire, sitting where the A38 meets the A61, with junction 28 of the M1 a few minutes away. That junction is one of the busiest logistics locations in the East Midlands, and the land around it, including at South Normanton just over the district boundary, holds large distribution centres, manufacturers and trade businesses. Alfreton also has a station on the line between Nottingham and Sheffield.
Like Mansfield, its neighbour along the A38, Alfreton grew on coal mining and its traditions run deep in the surrounding villages. Since the mines closed, its economy has shifted to distribution, manufacturing, construction and services. The town centre has independent shops and service businesses, and the area is a short drive from the Peak District and from both Derby and Nottingham.
For Alfreton businesses, the software we would expect to build is about making operations run smoothly. Distribution businesses and their suppliers need warehouse, stock and carrier systems that talk to each other, with automated labels, tracking and customer notifications. Manufacturers want production tracking, quality records and job costing. Building and trades firms want jobs, photos, certificates and invoices in one system. Smaller businesses want online booking and payments that save staff time.

How we work with Alfreton clients
We work remotely from Mansfield, Nottinghamshire, using video calls, shared staging sites you can click around in and short build stages you can see. Every project gets a fixed-price quote after a free initial chat and a short scoping stage. You own the code and the data. We have been building software and integrations for UK businesses since 2006.
Free chat
Tell us the problem in plain English: what you do now, what goes wrong and what "better" looks like. No charge, no obligation.
Scoping
We map the processes, systems and data involved, agree what is in and out, and write it down so there are no surprises.
Fixed-price quote
You get a fixed price for the agreed scope, or a phased plan for bigger builds, so you can start small and prove it works.
Build and test
We build in short stages you can see and try, test against real data, then go live carefully with a rollback plan.
Hand over and look after
You own the code and the data. We can host it, support it and keep improving it, or hand it to your own team.
