Sarah-Jane Murray is the founder of Vocus Vit, a sustainable activewear company.
Vocus Vit offers premium activewear for ladies with a strong focus on sustainability and ethical business practises. Without compromising on comfort, fit and style, the range is made from materials such as recycled plastic bottles.
Sarah-Jane used a £10,000 loan, delivered by the programme’s Business Support Partner, Enterprise NI, to expand her inventory and invest in growing her business further after returning from Australia to her hometown in County Tyrone following the birth of her son Albie.
The loan really helped accelerate my business plans and as it comes with free mentoring, I have been able to learn about things such as profit and loss forecasts and social media marketing.
