STRONGER BUSINESS

Our Stronger Business programme of work is essential for short-term survival, and long-term growth for our BID members. This theme group is focused on projects which support businesses through current economic worries, while also developing and marketing the city for future investors.

Our priorities include, encouraging cruise passengers/ crew to spend more time in the city centre, engaging with the City Council’s Local Plan from a business perspective, developing means for delivering economic growth, developing the city’s narrative, attracting investors and new businesses that will bring high paid employment to the city, and support businesses with recruitment, retention, training and skills development.
