The Entrepreneurs Market will provide an opportunity for start-ups and budding entrepreneurs to showcase their fledgling business ventures by pitching a market stall in Sutton.
The scheme has been developed by Opportunity Sutton as part of its remit to stimulate and support new business in the borough.
The fully funded programme will be delivered by Successful Sutton and will provide business support and guidance through a structured series of workshops. All aspects of business development will be covered from financial planning, marketing and branding, customer service and health and safety through to visual merchandising and social media.
A free market stall will also be provided to give entrepreneurs a platform to showcase their products or services to a readymade audience.
At the end of the programme the aim is that the businesses have a sustainable model for future growth.
All businesses involved must commit to attending workshops and one-to-one mentoring sessions over the course of the 18 months. The scheme is due to start in January.
