IGNITE Greer – Youth Entrepreneur Showcase

Announcing our inaugural IGNITE Greer – Youth Entrepreneur Showcase on Wednesday, July 27 from 8:30 – 9:30 AM at The Davenport, 230 Trade Street, Greer.

Three young entrepreneurs will present their existing business and present a challenge or opportunity where they want advice from attendees.

Fleur’s Fairy Floss. Fleur Joseph, 12, started her business in May 2022, and her business already produces a revenue stream. The goal of Fleur’s Fairy Floss is to spin cotton candy to make your day a little sweeter!

Drof. Ella Ford, 9, started Drof, in February 2022, and her initial product will be available for purchase by the event date. Drof is a sports athletic brand that will carry all things sports, including apparel and gear.

Greer Tidbits. Jonathan Lovegrove, 17, started Greer Tidbits in November 2017. With a goal of being the local social media information hub about everything Greer, Greer Tidbits has grown to a following of over 5,500.

Reno Deaton, Greer Development Corporation Executive Director, commented, “July 27 will be an exciting event for IGNITE Greer and the Platform as we open up our program to feature three young entrepreneurs. As we seek to create a culture of entrepreneurship and innovation in Greer, we remain ever-mindful that innovation comes in all shapes and sizes.”

The advice is free.
But the connection to Greer’s business community is PRICELESS!
