Enabling rural businesses to thrive and flourish

Visit us on Stand FM330. 

All new business ventures need careful thought to fully understand the opportunities, challenges and risks, and many current enterprises will be impacted by changes in regulations and government policy. The seminars at the CLA stand will provide independent and impartial updates on important market insights, understanding regulatory realities, and point to sources of funding and grants, to help you make the right decisions. 

The CLA focuses on supporting rural businesses and our experts are well placed to help you. 

Come along and listen to the seminars and ask questions of the experts on the day. Discover how our invaluable advice can support your business’s future development. If you are not already a member you can join up on the day (stand FM330) or visit www.cla.org.uk.
