About The Custard Factory.

The Custard Factory is Birmingham's most iconic creative workspace — a Victorian factory complex in Digbeth that was once the home of Bird's Custard and is now the city's largest creative and digital cluster. Over 400 businesses operate from the 400,000 square foot complex, including digital agencies, music and film production companies, fashion designers, software developers, and cultural organisations.

The B9 Digbeth postcode is at the heart of Birmingham's creative regeneration story. The area surrounding the Custard Factory is the focus of major investment including the HS2 Curzon Street terminus (adjacent to Digbeth), a proposed metro extension, and the Digbeth Creative Quarter development that has attracted Channel 4's Creative Hub and dozens of tech and creative businesses.
