Peterhead Business Group Survey

We asked

Aberdeenshire Council’s Economic Development department invited Peterhead businesses to provide their answers to a series of questions to determine whether there was a current need for a Business Group within the area. The questions were aimed at businesses in and around the Peterhead area in order to determine what support is currently needed and to help shape future projects led by the council’s Place Economy Team alongside other external partners.

You said

There was a total of 15 responses to the survey. It was clear to see that there are challenges faced by businesses in the area and that the vast majority felt a business group would help tackle some of the issues that are currently being faced. Support must be of value and must be agreed upon as a community, rather than rolled out without consultation.

We will

The survey results will be shared with all relevant parties, including elected members for Peterhead and internally to the Area Management Team and the Place Economy Team. Business Group meetings will be held once a month where further information will be circulated to group members, as well as looking at how future support and activities can be shaped going forward.
