It might involve getting free support from businesses, or special arrangements with local government such as cheap rates or leases.
ENTERPRISE ORIENTATION - Are you intending to increase your trading activity in the next 3 years? This question is intended to capture organisations that plan to extend and grow their business activities by finding new markets or introducing new services.
LOCAL - Are your social beneficiaries and business activities in the same geographical area? This question is intended to ensure that we can filter out international social enterprises from local social enterprises. Fair trade organisations and international groups may have different needs to local groups.
