Charlie and Katrina Sterrett, Sterretts Autocentre, Ravenhill Road
Belfast

(Charlie Sterrett, Winner of Belfast Media New Business Award, 2007)

"Having worked as a mechanic for years as well as 10 years in
management, I felt it was time to put the hours in for myself rather
than for someone else, and to build a business for my sons' future. The
Start a Business Programme was just what we needed to think through all
the issues of running a business. We are now employing staff and
thinking of opening a 2nd premises. The added value is knowing we can
phone the Business Advisers at the enterprise agency any time and they
can help support our business growth and point us in the right
direction"
