Bare Cards, a small greeting card business based in Wiltshire, has been shortlisted for this year’s Theo Paphitis #SBS Small Business Sunday x Spring Fair 2027 Competition
Theo Paphitis’ #SBS Small Business Sunday network has teamed up with Spring Fair and Autumn Fair to offer members of its community the chance to apply for a completely free stand at this year’s Autumn Fair, worth thousands of pounds.
Ceri Seal, owner of Bare Cards, said: “I’m incredibly proud to have reached this stage and proud to be shortlisted with so many other fabulous entrepreneurs. I’m really excited about the opportunity this competition represents for my business.’’
Jess Littlewood, chief community officer, #SBS Small Business Sunday, said: “Year after year, the #SBS x Spring Fair competition continues to deliver an incredible opportunity for our winners. In partnership with Spring Fair, we will have awarded over 100 stands to small businesses this year – many of whom leave with real, tangible results and new momentum behind their brands. It’s a truly business-boosting opportunity, and one we’re absolutely delighted to offer once again. Congratulations to Bare Cards on making the shortlist!”
This year’s opportunity is bigger than ever, with the #SBS Village growing from 12 to 18 stands, meaning even more small businesses have access to this game-changing opportunity to help them grow. All of the 18 finalists will also have TV Dragon and small business champion, Theo Paphitis, visit their stands at the show too.
The Spring Fair competition is always a highlight in the #SBS calendar. Previous winners have gone on to meet their dream stockists, secure US distribution deals, gain invaluable mentoring and forge lasting friendships.
The 18 lucky finalists will be announced by Spring Fair across social media channels on Friday July 10.
