Victoria Osborne (pictured), co-founder and managing director of Reepham-based L V Bespoke, has been appointed as a Norfolk Ambassador by the Norfolk Business Board.
The Norfolk Ambassadors programme brings together influential business leaders from across the county who are passionate about championing Norfolk as a place to live, work, invest and do business.
Ambassadors play an active role in promoting opportunities across the region, supporting collaboration and helping showcase the innovation and talent that exists within Norfolk’s thriving business community.
Ms Osborne joins the network at an exciting time for both L V Bespoke and the county, with the business continuing to experience significant growth within the horticultural and lifestyle sectors.
The company specialises in premium decorative metalwork, licensed garden products and bespoke retail display solutions, supplying leading organisations including the National Trust, Hillier Garden Centres, Blue Diamond Garden Centres and British Garden Centres.
Commenting on her appointment, Ms Osborne said: “I am incredibly proud to have been invited to become a Norfolk Ambassador. Norfolk has always been at the heart of everything we do at L V Bespoke and I am passionate about championing the county as a fantastic place to live, work and grow a business.
“We are fortunate to have an incredible network of innovative businesses, talented individuals and supportive organisations across Norfolk. I look forward to working alongside fellow ambassadors to help promote opportunities, encourage collaboration and showcase the exceptional businesses that call Norfolk home.”
Ms Osborne’s appointment further strengthens her growing influence within both the regional and national business communities. Earlier this year, she was appointed to the Garden Industry Manufacturers Association (GIMA) council, helping shape the future direction of the UK garden industry.
The company was recently recognised as a GIMA Sustainability Champion and continues to expand its national presence through new product development, strategic partnerships and the introduction of a UK-wide sales network.
Through her role as a Norfolk Ambassador, Ms Osborne hopes to inspire collaboration between businesses, support future talent and continue promoting Norfolk manufacturing and entrepreneurship on both a regional and national stage.
