#WEshopBC Virtual Pop Up open to Kamloops women

New initiative helps women-owned businesses benefit from local shopping this holiday season

by Women’s Enterprise Centre

Ninety per cent of Canadians believe in buying local during the holiday season — and Kamloops businesses need support more than ever.

In order to support and showcase women entrepreneurs in B.C., the Women’s Enterprise Centre (WEC) is building the #WEshopBC Virtual Pop Up to make it easy for people to purchase from women-owned businesses.

The Women’s Enterprise Centre is a non-profit organization that helps B.C. women start, lead and grow their own businesses. For 26 years, it has provided financing, training, advice and mentoring for women across the province and this is their first-ever buying initiative.

“Over the past 18 months, we’ve supported thousands of women entrepreneurs as they’ve navigated the uncertainty of the pandemic,” WEC CEO Jill Earthy said.

“Now, we want to help people discover and purchase from these amazing women-owned businesses so we can make a real economic impact.” #WEshopBC will open for shopping on Nov. 16 and WEC will be engaging the entrepreneurial ecosystem to encourage people all over B.C. to shop local this holiday season.

In addition to bringing more clients to local businesses, this initiative will help them improve their online presence by driving traffic to the businesses featured online.

In order to be included, businesses must be woman-owned, based in B.C. and actively operating with an online presence and ability to fulfil and ship orders, if applicable.

Applications are now open and all woman-owned businesses are welcome to apply at wec.ca/ WEshopBC.

The Women’s Enterprise Centre is a non-profit organization devoted to helping BC women start, lead and grow their own businesses. Their full range of services includes business loans up to $150,000, business advice, skills training, mentoring, resources and a supportive community to help women entrepreneurs realize their business potential.
