Jamie McGowan, corporate and new concepts manager at Founders & Co., said that it has never been more important to support small businesses who make up the backbone of the British industry. “Our ethos at Founders & Co. has always been to champion start-up establishments, and that’s why we wanted to offer a small helping hand as we approach the winter months, especially in recognition of Small Business Saturday in December, with the launch of our Small Business Support Package," he added.
The competition launched on Thursday, December 1 and applications close on Friday, December 16. Founders & Co are looking to help businesses who have gone the extra mile to support the local community, who have ten employees or fewer and a revenue of £500,000 or less. You can apply here.
