Mid Suffolk district is home to numerous diverse businesses from world-renowned brands such as Dulux and Bosch, to entrepreneurial SMEs.
The District has strengths in the Food and Drink industry, and clusters also exist in the Manufacturing, Engineering and Logistics sectors.
Mid Suffolk is part of the Haven Gateway sub-region, which has been given growth point status by the government, resulting in a £240m expansion of Felixstowe Port.
The district is an ideal location for logistic and port-related businesses, with excellent links to the Midlands and Europe. The railway stations at Elmswell, Stowmarket and Needham Market all provide direct links to London and Cambridge.
The Town Centre is soon to undergo a multi-million pound re-development to increase the number and size of retail units.
