Our reach
Building Cornwall's trusted business network
Cornwall runs on independents. Around 25,000 independent businesses trade here, and many depend on a seasonal trading window of roughly 5 to 12 months to carry them through the year. Cornwall Trusted exists to help those businesses get found, build trust and keep more money circulating locally.

The founder's story
Global digital expertise, brought home to Cornwall
One of our founders has spent his career growing global organisations through digital. He led digital for a football club that became the most engaged football club in the world, built digital apprenticeship programmes, and lectured on digital at Warwick Business School.
His clients have ranged from FedEx and Google to Enterprise Rent-A-Car, reaching around 19 million people across platforms. After nearly losing his son to suicide, he stepped away from scaling global businesses and chose a different life. He moved to Cornwall, and now he wants to put that experience to work for local businesses here, not for global corporations.
That is why Cornwall Trusted has to be independent. It exists for Cornwall's businesses, not for advertisers, and that independence is the reason trust scores can never be bought.
"I spent my career helping some of the biggest brands in the world grow through digital. Cornwall Trusted is where I put that experience to work for the place I now call home, so local independents get the same standard of digital thinking, without the corporate price tag."
