It's been quite a year for Staffordshire with three major inward investment successes from three of the world's biggest blue-chip brands.
First there was Amazon's 900-job project, followed by the headline-grabbing JLR 750-job plant and now news comes of Nestle investing £110m creating 300 new jobs at its coffee manufacturing facility
So that's nearly 2,000 new jobs to support coffee-sipping, Jag-driving, book-reading consumers - sounds like Staffordshire has it sussed!
