Startaclaus Day 6- Win a Hamper of Entrepreneurial Spark Startup Goodies!
by Startacus Admin
Merry Business to all- Startaclaus is back in town 
Having recovered from an exhausting time last December, when he gave away 12 days worth of marvellous Christmas business prizes, the jolly old fellow Startaclaus has joined us once again at Startacus HQ, with a sleigh full of brand new business Christmas goodies.
It’s DAY SIX of our 2014 Christmas business giveaway and we’ve got a hamper filled to the brim with goodies courtesy of our lovely friends over at Entrepreneurial Spark!
We've featured Entrepreneurial Spark and their business and startup programmes quite a bit here on Startacus - from their early stage startup support, to their Nest programme, to the recent announcement of the upcoming national expansion.
So we were delighted that they offered to give Startaclaus a helping hand with a wonderful E-Sparks Christmas hamper filled with lots of the products, gifts and goodies that their startups inhabitants have created and developed.
Here’s a list of what’s inside!
Angelic Gluten Free- Ginger crunch cookies
Angelic Gluten Free specialises in ‘free from’ produce, and retails a range of cookies, and savoury biscuits. The Angelic range is currently available in over 300 outlets throughout the UK and Ireland, and the company has recently begun exporting to Canada, Malaysia, Portugal, Czech Republic and Bahrain.
