Elevator was delighted to partner with Angus Council to deliver the recent Angus Independent Retailer Programme, which supported over 80 businesses across the region.

Encouraging local economic recovery following the Covid-19 pandemic, the Programme helped independent retailers within the region’s seven burgh towns with the resources, skills, and expertise they need to sustain and grow their businesses in an ever-changing market, funded through £400,000 of Local Authority Covid-19 Economic Recovery (LACER) money.

Professor Gary McEwan, CEO of Elevator commented, “At Elevator, our mission is to drive transformational change. We were therefore delighted to deliver this retailer-focused community wealth building programme on behalf of Angus Council.  The engagement and results have not only highlighted the resilience and skills of retailers across Angus, but also their hunger to succeed. We are proud to work with an innovative Council who share our passion for entrepreneurial local communities and the part they play in building a more equal, prosperous and vibrant economy.”
