Washington – The National Community Reinvestment Coalition’s Washington, DC Women’s Business Center (DC WBC) will hold its Third Annual “Shop, Sip and Celebrate” Holiday Bazaar this year on Tuesday, December 6, 2016. The DC WBC Holiday Bazaar is a pop-up marketplace to showcase local women-owned small businesses, many of which are DC WBC clients. It gives women entrepreneurs a place to market their products and gain exposure to new clients. Over the last two years the Bazaar has hosted over 50 vendors and over 300 attendees. This year’s event will host 30 vendors.
The Bazaar will be preceded by the first annual “We Make It Work” Small Business Awards Ceremony, where four DC WBC entrepreneurs will be recognized for their successful achievements in the Washington, DC local community. Award Ceremony attendees will receive VIP early access to the Bazaar.
In addition to the Bazaar, the DC WBC holds an annual “Holiday Hustle” small business training course to help women entrepreneurs prepare for the holiday season through inventory management, pricing for a profit, marketing, sales strategies, and visual marketing. All events are part of the DC WBC’s mission to serve women in the Washington, DC area by providing assistance with starting and growing a successful business.
