The 14,000 sq ft Rutland Cutlery Works building in Kelham Island will provide a range of food and drink businesses, creating 100 jobs and giving independent makers an opportunity to showcase their products.

The Cutlery Works will be a mix of permanent outlets and semi-permanent pop-ups, inspired by the hawker markets of South East Asia, with influences from Lisbon, New York and Barcelona.
