49-year old Nelu Nechita, from Grathwaite Avenue, was arrested at his home address back in February 2019 by members from the Gangmasters and Labour Abuse Authority.
As part of their investigation officers received intelligence indicating a number of people were being controlled and exploited at the property.
Seven potential Romanian victims were removed from the address during the operation, which was supported by Greater Manchester Police and the Department for Work and Pensions.
Following the conclusion of the investigation, Nechita was charged with facilitating the travel of two men from Romania to the UK with a view to exploitation and holding them and others in slavery or servitude.
He was also charged with acting as a gangmaster without a GLAA licence when he appeared at Stockport Magistrates Court on Thursday 20th August.
Nechita is now due to appear at Manchester Crown Court on Thursday 17th September where he is expected to enter a plea and trial preparations can begin.
