MILLIONS of pounds of business opportunities will be up for grabs for East Lancashire firms next week.

More than 50 organisations will be exhibiting at the East Lancashire Chamber of Commerce business-to-business exhibition at the Dunkenhalgh Hotel on May 16.

The event includes a 'Meet the Buyer' opportunity for firms to promote their companies and products to representatives from major buyers, including Somerfield, Lancashire County Council and BAE Systems.

The exhibition will also promote discounts off utility bills and other offers available through the chamber.

The East Lancashire office of the Regional Supply Network, which aims to boost the local economy by getting more purchasers to source supplies locally, will also be represented.
