New online Shetland Business Register live and open to entries


Shetland Islands Council has created a new online business register as a way of cataloguing the wide range and high quality of expertise, services and infrastructure that exists across Shetland all in one place. The register is now live and businesses can sign up athttp://move.shetland.org/shetland-business-register.
It will present Shetland’s industry, in a convenient and easily accessible way, to companies who may be involved in large-scale projects and are seeking local suppliers.
SIC’s Economic Development Service will also use it as a tool to let registered companies know about relevant business information including training opportunities and external funding sources.
Each registered business will receive a password to edit their individual profile and ensure their most up-to-date information is displayed.
The fully searchable database will be accessible to companies involved in large-scale projects via a password, which can be applied for through Economic Development. Anyone can access an overview of the business listing at http://move.shetland.org/shetland-businesses
Douglas Irvine, Executive Manager - Economic Development, says: “We expect that the new online register will become the first stop for companies looking to do business in Shetland, as well as a useful tool for local businesses to make the most of opportunities available to them.”
