The Young Enterprise Big Market Trade Fairs landed in Northern Ireland’s top shopping destinations in February 2023 with student companies making over £8,000 worth of sales across six events.

The annual Trade Fairs were attended by over 60 companies from 50 schools all of which are taking part in the Young Enterprise Company, Team or QuickStart programmes. Over 600 young entrepreneurs honed their sales technique, refined their product offering, worked on their marketing and made those all-important sales as they progressed through their Young Enterprise journey.

We would like to extend a huge ‘thank you’ to all of the business volunteers that have mentored these student companies, and the teachers and volunteer judges who supported on the day of each Trade Fair.
