The Federation of Small Businesses are working with Somerset Council and Somerset Chamber to hold two events in September with the aim to demystify the process of supplying the new unified council and to highlight the types of opportunities available. By increasing the amount of local businesses Somerset Council uses as suppliers we can ensure that more investment stays within our local economy supporting our local businesses and therefore our local residents. Councils are required to pay within 30 days and have a vast range of opportunities from large highways contracts to small printing jobs.
Why not come along to one of our two events to find out more:
- Tuesday 12 September 10am - 12noon the Procurement and Commissioning Team will be at Deane House in Taunton
- Thursday 21 September 2-4pm an identical workshop will be held 2-4pm at the Yeovil Innovation Centre.
Mark Moore from the South West Cyber Resilience Centre will also be speaking at these events about the free support they offer small businesses to help them to stay safe online.
Join us at one of these events and have the opportunity to find out how things work, to get any questions answered and to raise awareness of your business with the Council Team.
