British premium sports fashion brand Castore is to relocate its headquarters from Liverpool to One Central Street in Manchester city centre.
The business has signed a 13-year lease with landlord Kinrise to occupy all available workspace – c.22,100 sq ft - within the building across five floors.
Founded in 2015 by brothers Thomas and Philip Beahon, Castore currently sells products in more than 50 countries worldwide and includes collaborations with sports stars such as Andy Murray.
The company's revenue is also expected to reach £100m this year.
Castore will relocate all staff from current headquarters in Liverpool to Manchester this year and expect to create a further 300 jobs in the city in the next two years.
Phil Beahon said: "We are delighted to be moving to Manchester and opening Castore House as our global HQ in the city.
"It is clear for everyone to see that Manchester is a city with an incredible buzz about it and the number of fast-growing, high tech businesses in the city were a real draw for us when choosing our long-term home for Castore."
Chief executive of Manchester City Council Joanne Roney added: "I am delighted to welcome Castore to Manchester.
