Toyota Motor Manufacturing (UK) Ltd is the British manufacturing subsidiary of Toyota. Established in 1989, the main factory is at Burnaston in Derbyshire, with an engine factory located in Deeside, North Wales. Construction of the Burnaston factory began in March 1990 after the demolition of Burnaston House, and took almost three years to complete. The factory was officially opened on 4 June 1993 by Prince Charles, almost six months after vehicle production had begun.
