Our Economic and Rural Economic Strategies

Supporting the growth of a strong, dynamic, and prosperous Staffordshire economy is a top priority of the County Council.  Despite global economic challenges, the County Council continues to support Staffordshire’s residents and businesses, ensuring we are well-placed to deliver a more resilient, more dynamic, and more productive local economy.

Our ambitious Economic and Rural Economic Strategies are our roadmap to delivering our ambitions for the local economy, where our existing business are helped to grow, new businesses are established and thrive, our residents have the skills needed to access the jobs of the future and supporting the creation of places across all parts of the county that we can be proud of.  The Strategies set out those priorities that we will aim to achieve to deliver our long-term vision for our economy but ensure that the County Council can remain flexible in our approach to deal with any challenges as they arise.
