West Northamptonshire Council’s Economic Growth & Inward Investment Team highlighted the region’s prime position for business investment and support during the Northamptonshire Chamber of Commerce’s annual business exhibition at Franklin’s Gardens on Thursday, 19 September.
As part of the event, visitors were invited to enter a raffle to win a luxury hamper of local produce, generously donated by local businesses including Amazon in Daventry, Creations of the Heart (Towcester), Towcester Mill Brewery, and Northampton-based Mooch, Vintage Guru, D&B Communications, and Cardew & Co. The lucky winner selected was Serena Merrison from High Voltage Systems & Services (HVSS) in Kettering.
Cllr Daniel Lister, WNC’s Cabinet Member for Local Economy, Culture & Leisure said: “The Chamber’s Business Exhibition is always a fantastic opportunity to connect with hundreds of local businesses and share the free support and funding we can offer as a local authority.
“West Northamptonshire is an ideal location for investment and business growth, and we want to ensure businesses of all sizes, at all stages of development, receive the support they need to thrive. From access to funding streams to advice on upskilling staff, finding premises, or filling vacancies, we offer a wide range of services to help our local businesses succeed.
“Economic prosperity is key to improving the lives of everyone in West Northamptonshire, and we are committed to working collaboratively with partners and stakeholders to achieve this.”
