Northern Devon Economic Strategy

An ambitious economic strategy for North Devon and Torridge presents a positive future vision, with strong contribution from the manufacturing sector

Underpinned by a comprehensive and eye-opening baseline report, the Economic Strategy 2024-2029 outlines ways in which Northern Devon can take advantage of its unique and beautiful position in the Southwest to develop a sustainable environment for business, jobs and people to thrive in an ever-changing economic landscape.

Manufacturers have been strongly represented during the consultation period, via NDMA and directly, as a vital part of the region’s economy. Pharmaceuticals, clean maritime and food production are identified as key clusters, but the document is clear that there are many industries that cross these clusters and are woven into the essential fabric of the region’s prosperity.
