Colette Paperie | Application Preview
Colette Paperie is seeking government grants to support capital investment and the creation of new products. The business plans to expand its distribution network beyond the 600 stores that currently offer its products. The passionate backstory of the brand, which was founded in a hospital room during a challenging time, resonates deeply with customers. Colette's cards blend humor and sincerity, making them popular for uplifting moments. Competing against well-established brands like Paper Source, Hallmark, and Papyrus, Colette Paperie's competitive edge lies in its complete in-house production process, encompassing artwork, printing, cutting, and packaging. This approach not only ensures quality but also reflects the brand's unique vision.

Business Plan
I hope to create new products and expand my distribution past the 600 stores that currently carry my products. I have a great story. I created this brand in a hospital room when my mother was terminally ill many years ago. My cards are funny yet sincere, for use in tough times when a laugh is needed. They have been very popular over the years and are sold in over 600 stores worldwide.
