By opening their brand dedicated to the party, they are making a dream come true

Hayat et Rachida se lancent dans une nouvelle aventure professionnelle.

Rachida et Hayat lancent leur première boutique dans la galerie commerciale.

Une nouvelle boutique, avec pour enseigne "La Fête", has just opened in the Intermarché shopping mall in Courbessac. Close to the entrance, the shop, with its sought-after aesthetic, adds a pleasant note with its festive products, intended for all important family events. Products adapted to various cultures and for all ages.

The two managers, Rachida and Hayat, did not take the plunge, because they say, "the banks would not follow and the director of Intermarché would not have validated the project". One was an educational instructor for disabled adults, the other an ambulance driver: they therefore had enough experience to currently venture into creating a business. Meeting.

How was this project born?

We met while marauding. We had created an association linked to the Red Cross. The same youthful dream brought us together. We both wanted to become entrepreneurs and had a taste for decoration.

How did you gain the trust of banks, difficult to obtain in our time?

First, we were able to highlight our experiences which allowed us to do training with the BGE network in Nimes , which provides support for the creation and development of businesses. We met some very competent people there. It’s a fairly intensive process: doing market research, going through several steps to access the exam to obtain the company certificate. We don't throw ourselves into the den of the wolf. You have to be aware to get started.

What do you offer in your store ?

We offer pignatas, arrangements with strollers, baby bottles filled with sugared almonds and other nice containers, tableware. And then everything related to tableware: jewelry, evening bags… We are well located next to the beautiful soap flower boutique (1), with which we have excellent relationships.
