‘Cheers’ to Cin Cin, thanks to Business Navigator

Hove-based Cin Cin is just one of the local businesses benefiting from guidance provided by the Business Navigator Scheme. Cin Cin (which means ‘cheers’ in Italian) is a mobile catering van, available for events and private hire, serving prosecco and nibbles. Owner David Toscano contacted Brighton & Hove Business Navigator Laura Evans to find out exactly what kind of support he could access.

The Business Support Navigator scheme is a project supported by the Regional Growth Fund and managed by Coast to Capital and delivered on behalf of the Greater Brighton City Region.

With Laura’s help, David made use of the Growth Voucher scheme to get Cin Cin’s financial strategy and forecasting in place, and has a business mentor. He says, “The work with my Growth Voucher consultant has helped me understand the financials of my current business turnover and profits, as well as what would be required financially to achieve my medium term goals. And my business mentor is great for getting feedback on my ideas.”

David now feels he has lots of reasons to say ‘cheers’: a much greater understanding of the fundamentals of running a business and clear plans for growth. He’s also met some great Sussex business people along the way.

Join David and say ‘cheers’ to the Business Navigator scheme and access a wealth of information and guidance.
