This impressive initiative, funded by the UK Shared Prosperity Fund #UKSPF, is specifically designed to bolster local businesses, positively impacting the local economy and solidarity within the retail community.
The programme promises to provide in-depth guidance, nurturing businesses to reach their full potential by focusing on core aspects including business strategy, marketing, customer service, e-commerce, stock control, and people & performance management.
Participants can expect a comprehensive learning journey through five interactive in-person sessions as well as the flexibility to opt for on-site or online 1-2-1 sessions, all under the supervision of industry experts. The programme aims to provide a platform for retailers to connect, share, and learn from each other.

Eligibility for this programme is extended to business owners with retail premises operating in Inverclyde for a minimum of 1 year, with no minimum turnover requirement.
The goal is simple and robust: to help your retail business and the local community prosper! By participating in this programme, local retailers can increase sales, secure jobs, boost the local economy, and foster strong connections within Inverclyde’s retail family.
