Cabinet Member for Regeneration, Leisure and Tourism, Cllr Hazel Evans said:
“The 100% Sir Gâr Christmas Pop-Up Event is an excellent opportunity for small local businesses in Carmarthenshire to show case their talent by selling their products in a high street setting”.
She then added that “it is an important opportunity to celebrate Carmarthenshire and experience locally sourced products, including food and drink, and support the local community whilst enjoying ourselves”.
If however, you are unable to make any of our events, you can find all of our registered 100% Sir Gâr small businesses on our 100% Sir Gâr website page.
Carmarthenshire County Council encourages small businesses that have not already registered to sign up via our website, this will provide an extra opportunity for small businesses to promote and market their products to a wider range of customers.
