STAFF at a major employer in the region have been enjoying the sweet taste of success.
Orange, which employs more than 6,000 people in the North-East, has been named the top mobile phone company in terms of customer numbers.
Figures released by all mobile phone firms showed that Orange had the most regular customers and was in control of 28 per cent of the market.
The company was also ranked number one for customer satisfaction in a nationwide survey.
To celebrate, all the company's staff in the North-East were given a box of chocolates shaped like a number one.
Staff in Tyneside, Darlington and Peterlee, east Durham, were able to tuck into the treats.
