Business Leaders of Deal and Sandwich, based in Kent, is a networking group that aims to generate business for its members through networking opportunities and quality referrals.

With over 3,600 chapters worldwide, BNI is the largest business networking organisation in the world and is now becoming firmly established in Kent. Imagine having your own sales force of thirty to forty people, telling others about your services and recommending you to their customers.

Every member generates business for others within the group, locking out the competition with only one member per profession per chapter.
