Croydon's entrepreneurs and entrepreneurs-to-be now have their own, dedicated hotline to help them on the road to success.
The new Croydon Enterprise business hotline - 020 8680 6161 - has been launched as a one-stop shop for the business support offered by the programme.
Call centre staff will be on hand to answer questions on the spot and refer callers on to the programme ‘delivery partners' who are making Croydon Enterprise happen ... in our communities.
This key service, operating during office hours, is being delivered by Croydon Business Ltd on behalf of the Croydon Enterprise programme.
The hot-line gives access to advice on everything Croydon Enterprise offers businesses - or businesses-to-be. Check out this website to see what you can access: business advice, franchise opportunities, international trade expertise, affordable accommodation, business-friendly planning .... And that's just the start!
