The Micro Entreprenuer Planning-Pilot Project

The project’s objective is to identify Imperial County micro-entrepreneurs with tradable products that can be marketed online. The project will adapt the framework used by Amazon Fulfillment Centers as a guide for developing a local fulfillment center and sales process to support participants in selling their products.

Learn E-commerce

Through a series of workshops, newsletters and digital noticeboards, we will offer valuable information to micro-entrepreneurs with tradeable products that can be marketed beyond the local area. All services and information will be accessible in English and Spanish.
