Two local business support agencies are working in partnership to provide holistic business support to all business sectors across Pembrokeshire through the medium of Welsh.

As part of Milford Haven-based PBI's commitment to help support new and existing business operations in Pembrokeshire they have teamed up with Menter a Busnes in order to deliver their extensive business support services to both English and Welsh speaking clients. PBI believes that the introduction of Welsh to the company reflects its core value of understanding and addressing business needs in the county.

PBI's managing director, Richard Packman said: "The relationship between PBI and Menter a Busnes as reflected in the business support delivery projects encompassed within the new contractual arrangement is evidence of the partnership approach by both organisations.

"This is a wholly practical arrangement aimed at fulfilling the development needs of clients of both organisations and contributing strongly to the economic regeneration of the area. This allows wider access to entrepreneurship by clients groups with specific needs."

Within the next few months people either interested in starting a business or who wish to receive existing business support will have the option to receive their consultations in the Welsh language.
