ZARAMIA AVA Featured on Gramersi BBC’s ‘The Apprentice:’ Our 2022 Round-up
in PUBLICATION, FASHION
We are featured on Gramersi BBC’s ‘The Apprentice:’ Our 2022 Round-up check out the article here.
‘Seeing as BBC’s ‘The Apprentice’ IS BACK, here are our favourite stories and videos from some of the brands and entrepreneurs we’ve featured from the show.
ZARAMIA AVA:
I was living in Leeds when the Leeds-based fashion brand, ZARAMIA AVA popped onto The Apprentice in one of the tasks, so it was a pleasant experience to be able to dig deep into the nostalgia on this one a few years later. We hadn’t written about many fashion brands at the time, so this was a great opportunity for us. ‘Fashion’ has since gone on to become one of the most popular categories on our platform. Thanks, ZARAMIA AVA. We owe you big time.
To Conclude:
Like you, we have missed The Apprentice, and it’s a shame that the pandemic took it away from us for two years. But as with many other great things in life, it’s only when you lose them, that you realise how special they are, and the pandemic has been a stark, daily reminder of this, for many of us across the globe.
The Apprentice is prime-time television. It’s a cornerstone of British television. It’s about family time and entertainment, but most importantly, it’s about supporting small businesses, British businesses, and it’s about spreading those all-important business lessons across the nation, in a fun and entertaining way (that somehow seems to find it’s way into the unconscious).’
