Managed IT support that takes full responsibility

Market Drayton is a market town in north Shropshire, famous as the birthplace of Robert Clive and home to one of Europe's largest food factories — Müller UK. It sits at a geographical crossroads between Shropshire, Cheshire and Staffordshire, with the A53 and A529 connecting it to Shrewsbury, Nantwich and Newcastle-under-Lyme.

Blackwood IT covers Newport, Shrewsbury, Telford and Crewe — Market Drayton sits centrally between our existing Shropshire and Cheshire coverage areas. It's a natural extension of the same north Shropshire service we already deliver, from the same team.

We take a different approach to most IT providers. Rather than waiting for things to break and reacting, we monitor your systems proactively, apply patches and maintenance regularly, and manage your suppliers directly. Every client gets a dedicated account manager and a dedicated technical manager — people who know your business and own your IT properly.

From managed IT services and cyber security to Microsoft 365 and Azure, business connectivity and structured cabling, we handle everything under one roof — one bill, one team, one accountable partner.
