Stockport Council is inviting local businesses to a Meet The Buyer event to learn how they can partner with the borough to deliver its regeneration ambitions.
Taking place on Thursday 7th December from 3pm – 5.30pm in Stopford House (Piccadilly, Stockport, SK1 3UR), the event gives businesses the chance to meet the council’s design and technical services, procurement and regeneration teams to discuss how the council and private sector can work together to deliver ambitious projects which make a real difference to everyone who lives, works and spends time in our borough. Directors from across the organisation will be in attendance and happy to answer any questions.
Also in attendance will be STAR Procurement who will discuss current opportunities and the processes in place at the council. STAR Procurement is a shared procurement service used by Stockport Council, alongside other local authorities and healthcare bodies in Greater Manchester and surrounding areas.
Cllr Jilly Julian, Cabinet Member for Finance and Resources, commented:
“This is a great opportunity for local businesspeople to come along and find out more about potentially working alongside the council on some really exciting projects. At Stockport Council, partnership working is at the heart of what we do, and we’re always looking to expand our network of partners who align with our aims and values. I’d encourage any Stockport-based tradespeople, consultants and those working in the estates and asset management space to come along to our Meet the Buyer event.”
Free tickets can be booked via Eventbrite.
