Québec, Wednesday June 25, 2014 - The big day for small entrepreneurs is this Saturday! More than 250 children aged 5 to 12, helped by their parents, invested time, energy and a lot of creativity to present their small businesses for a day to the entire population. On Saturday, June 28, at 10 a.m., small entrepreneurs will be ready to welcome visitors with more than 150 product and service kiosks dotting the streets of the greater Quebec City region and even the South Shore. People will be able to visit the Barbelim CANDY, Boutique ROSE, La Boîte à Jus, Pitchou Pitcha, Le petit ouvrier, Restaurant le petit lézard, Le corner snack des fillettes and many other inspiring projects to buy their original products.
Initiated by the entrepreneurs Mathieu Ouellet, Isabelle Genest and Me Catherine Morissette, The great day of small entrepreneurs aims to promote the transmission of entrepreneurial values among young people by giving them a first business experience. “The children put a lot of heart into preparing this day and their kiosks. We invite the entire population to go and encourage them. If each person takes up the challenge of visiting 2 to 3 kiosks, all of our small entrepreneurs will be able to have a first positive and rewarding entrepreneurial experience, ”said Nicolas Bouchard, founder of DuProprio and honorary president of the event.
