Dyson has announced that it is moving its headquarters to Singapore, from Malmesbury in Wiltshire.<\/p>\n

The move by the appliance maker means two executives will relocate – chief financial officer Jorn Jensen and chief technical officer Martin Bowen.<\/p>\n

Other work at Malmesbury will not be affected and no jobs will be lost.<\/p>\n

Chief executive Jim Rowan said it was not to do with Brexit or tax but added: “It’s to make us future-proof for where we see the biggest opportunities.”<\/p>\n

He added: “We have seen an acceleration of opportunities to grow the company from a revenue perspective in Asia. We have always had a revenue stream there and will be putting up our best efforts as well as keeping an eye on investments.<\/p>\n

“We would describe ourselves as a global technology company and in fact we have been a global company for some time. Most successful companies these days are global.”<\/p>\n

British bases<\/h2>\n

Dyson already has a presence in Singapore and in October announced plans to build its new electric car in its new factory there.<\/a><\/p>\n

Most of its products are designed in the UK, but manufactured in Asia.<\/p>\n
