More information about Cannock
Introduction
Cannock is a market town and civil parish located in the central part of the English Midlands, just 9 miles away from the city of Wolverhampton and 14 miles away from Birmingham. Despite its relatively small population, Cannock has several key connections to the car industry, the finance industry and motorsports, which has underpinned its growth and transformation into a bustling and thriving town today.
The Car Industry
Cannock used to be a hub for car manufacturing in the postwar era, with multiple factories and underlying businesses taking part in the town. British Leyland's plant in the town, known as the EMC (Engine and Machine Company), was used to manufacture the iconic Austin Healey and MG Midget sports cars throughout the 60s and 70s.
The Longbridge Metro development also saw the area become a hub of car production too. The Metro saw over a million vehicles produced during its run, and production from Cannock's plant ended in 2001. Many of the jobs in the plant were transferred to other sites within the Longbridge estate, and a large number of the workers live in or around Cannock today.
The Finance Industry
Cannock is home to a vibrant and thriving finance industry, with businesses ranging from banks, insurance companies and other financial services. The town is home to several regional and national banks, such as HSBC, Barclays and Santander, and several independent firms, such as Connolly Financial Solutions, CKL Associates and Cooke Financial Ltd.
The town also has its own financial centre, the Cannock Financial Centre (CFC), which houses a variety of banks, insurers and other financial services. It is part of the larger Cannock hub complex, which also includes the retail centre, a library and other services.
Motor Sport

The CarbonX Race is a three-hour endurance race which takes place once a year, and the BK Racing is a competition which features modified cars and features drivers from all over the world.
The region is also home to the Three Sisters Race Track circuit, which is a 1.3-mile track that hosts a variety of events such as go-karting, Supermoto and motorcycle events. It has been used to host major championships and races, including the British Kart Grand Prix, British Mini GP and the British Supermoto GP.
