Are you a creative individual from West Belfast
Have you developed your own product but lack the shop frontage to turn it into a cash cow?
The West Belfast Partnership is offering the opportunity for four creative individuals to be part of our ‘pop up’ shop. Those chosen will sell their products in the shop from 30th July to 12th August, providing a great opportunity to test the market and create a buzz of excitement around your product. An opportunity that you can’t afford to miss!
So if you are interested then register for the Partnerships ‘Dragons’ Den’ on the 15th June. Here you will be given the chance to showcase your product in front of a panel of judges who will select the lucky four who will participate in this one off event.
Are you ready for the Challenge?
Online registration is essential and is on a first come first served basis. The first 20 to register will be allocated time slots to showcase their product. Information and Registration forms can be found at www.westbelfast-partnership.com
