Enjoy from the comfort of your own home with no early starts or commute and make sure to make a coffee and bring a smile to this online video meeting. 

Who’s it for? 

Business owners, managers, entrepreneurs, start-ups, young businesses and anyone who wants to connect and engage with other businesses in the Norfolk area. 

Topic – How PlantGrow grew from a local business to a global player

18-months ago PlantGrow were just a very small independent family business based in Attleborough in Norfolk, literally selling their plant-based products to their neighbours. Now PlantGrow sells its products all over the UK, into Northern Ireland, Europe, and soon to be many other places across the globe.

The most important thing to take from this story is persistence, patience, and ambition. PlantGrow invested in their business at the quietest point in the season, demonstrating that risk is crucial. This paid off at the right time, although your business may be slower than you like or in some cases standing still, don’t let that stop you from reaching out to what is in front of you.

Guest Speaker

Ashley Day, Sales and Marketing Director at PlantGrow

He has spent most of his working life alongside businesses of all sizes, developing strategic plans to market, repairing, and improving the customers journey and many of which are within Norfolk.
