HOW NESTLÉ'S DERBYSHIRE COFFEE FACTORY HAS BEEN A KEY PART OF LOCAL LIFE FOR MORE THAN 120 YEARS

When Nestlé opened its Tutbury factory in Derbyshire in 1901, it was primarily in the business of producing tinned milk, but switched to manufacturing Nescafé instant coffee in 1959.

Now the factory can turn out an impressive 170,000 jars of Nescafé every day and 25 million Nescafé Dolce Gusto pods a week, as well as a variety of Starbucks at Home coffee products.

And for the past 35 years of its existence Jane Downes has been working here, having started as a night cleaner before landing her dream job in the staff shop.

But her connection to the place goes back even further. Her mum was employed in the quality lab for 18 years, and as a teenager Jane used to walk with her to the Nestlé staff shop and wait for her to come out with a bag of goodies - not realising that one day she would be running the shop herself.
