Supporting tourism businesses
North Devon+ is the official destination management organisation (DMO) for North Devon and Exmoor. We work with Visit England, Visit Devon (Devon Tourism Partnership), the Devon and Somerset Tourism Forum and the Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP) to support and develop the local tourism economy.
Our goal is to create a successful and sustainable visitor economy. We recognise that without collaboration, coordination and a continued focus, places do not evolve with a common purpose, all the components that make a successful destination need to be managed in an integrated and long-term way, with a clear focus on the needs of residents, businesses and visitors.
In the official tourism statistics of 2011 the tourism sector provided 69,896 FTE jobs representing 11% of all employment across the HOTSW LEP footprint area generating £3,407,534,000 for the local economy. With 51m trips per annum Tourism is big business for Devon. We are committed to supporting and growing this sector.
