Yorkshire Coast Enterprise (YCE) a business start up support and development agency in Scarborough, Whitby and Ryedale attracts the interest of local MP Robert Goodwill as he visits the centre.
Yorkshire Coast Enterprise is very proud to be able to support aspirational entrepreneurs to help get their business venture off the ground, with a view to assisting the local economy. They were founded in 1985 by Michael Pitts, who is still the chairman.
YCE have helped 12 new businesses to start up in the last month alone.
YCE’s services help individuals explore and develop their idea and get their business off the ground, helping to access low cost loans if finance is one of the barriers to their business starting up. Mentoring support accompanies this free service and the success rate demonstrates the strong demand for self-employment in and around North Yorkshire.
YCE have been providing a business support service in the Scarborough area since 1985 and we very are pleased to be able to offer this continued support from our new dedicated self employment premises on Northway in Scarborough.
Local MP Robert Goodwill said:
"Yorkshire Coast Enterprise is helping hundreds of aspiring entrepreneurs get the finance and support to strike out on their own and launch their own business. The success of Yorkshire Coast Enterprise shows that individuals in Scarborough, Ryedale and Whitby have got the ideas, the ambition and sheer commitment to get ahead – and it is by supporting them, and their aspirations that we, as an economy, will be able to compete and thrive."
