Amelia starts crowdfunding in expansion move

A local businesswoman is hoping the people of Scarborough can help her to expand her business. Amelia Forrest, owner of Amelia’s Chocolate, is currently based in Victoria Road and has launched a crowdfunding bid to help raise funds towards moving her business to the former Street Cred retail outlet in the Balmoral Shopping Centre.

Amelia said: “Thanks to the success of our business in Victoria Road, we are now looking to have a larger, brand new chocolate bar, workshop space and retail outlet.

“We are hoping to raise the investment of £30,000 for the first stage of our expansion and our customers can support it by taking part in our exclusive Amelia’s Chocolate Crowdfunder events, which are only available until 2 July 2018 on http:// acrn.co/ameliaschocolate”
