“We are one of very few companies in the UK offering a range of high quality facilities under one roof and, because of that, we’re very confident about the success of the new site here in Ipswich. The Buttermarket has recently celebrated the 25th anniversary of the centre and we’re excited to be a part of its future.”

It is estimated 30 jobs will be created once Superbowl UK Ipswich is open.

The company has also said that it will use local tradesmen through the fit-out process.
