We’re thrilled to announce that Procure Smart is once again sponsoring SunFest as part of Sunderland Business Week 2026!
SunFest will feature headline appearances from entrepreneur and TV personality Spencer Matthews, who rose to fame for his role on hit TV show Made in Chelsea, before founding CleanCo, the world’s leading independent non-alcoholic spirits brand, inspired by his own journey into sobriety. The company offers alcohol-free alternatives to gin, rum, tequila, whiskey and vodka.
SunFest is set to be a full-day celebration of innovation, inspiration, and connection. Expect thought-provoking talks, hands-on workshops, live music, and vibrant networking opportunities in a festival-style setting at the fabulous Fire Station in Sunderland City Centre.
As a proud member of the Sunderland Business Partnership – organisers of SunFest – Procure Smart is excited to be part of this event.
Commercial Partnerships Manager at Procure Smart, Sarah Andrews, said: “Sunderland Business Festival is a staple event in the Northeast networking scene, and there is an excellent line-up for SunFest 2026, with Spencer Matthews being the first announcement. This sponsorship provides an opportunity to align Procure Smart with the wider business community in our region and raise the profile of our Sunderland-based innovations.
“It’s going to be a brilliant day of learning and development, connections and collaborations. We are keen to share all the ways working with Procure Smart can benefit organisations of all shapes and sizes.”
Join us on 15 October at the Fire Station, where we’ll be chatting about our cost-saving services and income-generating Partnership scheme. SunFest is a one-day event as part of the wider Sunderland Business Week, bringing together business leaders, entrepreneurs, and innovators for inspiring discussions, insights, and opportunities to connect – all highlighting the ambition and energy driving Sunderland forward.
