Females Empowering Family Businesses


Meet the visionary females within Kent working together to keep family businesses thriving

Belinda Collins from Zest the Agency and Amalia Brightley of Family Business Place (FBP) have joined forces in 2018 to help drive mutual growth 

Amalia and Belinda are both leaders in their fields. Both are passionate Managing Directors, and the driving forces within their respective businesses with 35 years of experience between them. Fuelled with determination, confidence and aspirations, together, they plan to achieve great things.

The collaboration comes after Belinda and Amalia were introduced at a fundraising event earlier this year. Once discovering their shared values and ethics behind each of their businesses, they've decided to support one another by sharing their passion, knowledge and contacts to help their businesses flourish.

Belinda Collins, Managing Director of Zest the Agency believes "Working with Family Business Place will open up opportunities to connect with other successful family businesses in the country, to help them develop and grow. I am also passionate about securing Family Business Place the profile they deserve for the excellent work they do within their sector". 

Zest the Agency will provide FBP with a wealth of marketing, digital, social and PR knowledge and in return Family Business Place will provide Zest with a vast range of opportunities to work with their family business network.

Amalia from FBP, "I believe the benefits from working with Zest could potentially transform Family Business Place as the team has have a deep understanding of what we are trying to achieve. Although Zest are not a family business they share our morals and ethics, which is why we chose to work with them. It would be great if other businesses in the area would follow suit and start collaborating for greater mutual benefit and to strengthen Kent's economy".

Family Business Place advise and offer guidance to family businesses across the UK. They also host The National Family Business Awards and hold conferences throughout the UK to connect family businesses, and encourage trading between them.

Belinda will be a guest speaker at The National Family Business Conference in London, passing on her knowledge on branding and marketing to all of those who attend.

By working together Belinda and Amalia aim to grow their businesses, and show to the business leaders of Kent that by working with like-minded people with similar values success can be achieved.
