ByBermuda 2.0 Launched For Holiday Season
In conjunction with Global Entrepreneurship Week celebrations, the Bermuda Economic Development Corporation [BEDC] announced the launch of ByBermuda 2.0, the “revamped online marketplace, just in time to spread holiday cheer. ”
A spokesperson said, “The upgraded platform is tailored to empower local small businesses and entrepreneurs, providing them with an exceptional opportunity to showcase and sell their products and services in the digital realm.
“In line with our unwavering commitment to bolstering Bermuda’s small businesses, BEDC generously subsidizes vendors’ costs to list and utilize the ByBermuda platform during its initial phase. As a result, local entrepreneurs can reap the rewards of online selling without the financial burdens associated with creating and maintaining their websites.
“BEDC extends a warm invitation to all vendors and small business owners who have yet to establish an online presence. Erica Smith, Executive Director of BEDC, emphasizes the importance of this opportunity to support new vendors and small businesses, fostering a thriving virtual marketplace within our local community.
“ByBermuda offers a virtual haven for local retailers, service providers, and vendors to engage with customers, even during these challenging times. It simplifies transitioning your business into the online world, ensuring accessibility for small businesses.
“Partnering with local entrepreneur, Kimwana Eve, founder of Hey Lookie Lookie small business directory, the BEDC looks forward to helping to onboard as many small businesses as possible.
“If you are a local small business owner eager to expand your reach and enhance your online presence, become a vendor on ByBermuda. Become a vendor on the ByBermuda Virtual Market in 2 easy steps:
