Local writer wants to profile family businesses

PETERBOROUGH Business has been approached by a writer who wants to profile a selection of family owned and run businesses in the Peterborough area.

The author is particularly interested in consumer-facing companies offering products and services to the public. The longer the business has been in the family, the better, but all stories will be considered.

This is a great opportunity to get your family business, or your favourite local company, some publicity. Suggesting ideas in the comment box below will get them seen on this website or you can email news@peterboroughbusiness.co.uk and we will pass the details of the company to the writer.

You can follow any responses to this entry through the RSS 2.0 feed. You can leave a response, or trackback from your own site.

    Hello! I am the writer researching the family businesses story in Nene Valley Living magazine. Many thanks to those who have responded so far, but I know there are many, many more family businesses out there — ones that have been running for generations, in some cases. Please contact me with details and, perhaps, why you think family businesses are so successful. Please contact me through this website or by email direct to me at david@nenevalleymedia.com
    Many thanks, Dave Phillips (Nene Valley Media)
