Ymgysylltodd  mwy na 1,000 o fusnesau â’r Gymraeg yn ystod blwyddyn gyntaf y cynllun Cymraeg Byd Busnes – gwasanaeth rhad ac am ddim i fusnesau sy’n cael ei ariannu gan Lywodraeth Cymru – cadarnhaodd y Gweinidog y Gymraeg a Chysylltiadau Rhyngwladol heddiw fod dros 200 o fusnesau wedi derbyn cymorth i ddatblygu cynlluniau penodol i ddatblygu eu defnydd o’r Gymraeg. 

Nod y fenter yw cynyddu’r niferoedd o fusnesau preifat sy’n defnyddio’r Gymraeg, a thros amser, y cyfleoedd i bobl ddefnyddio’r Cymraeg yn lleol.  

Mae’r rhwydwaith genedlaethol o swyddogion busnes wedi eu lleoli o fewn y Mentrau Iaith ar draws Cymru, ac wedi gwreiddio yn eu cymunedau. Gan ymgysylltu â busnesau bach a chanolig eu maint, maent yn cynnig ystod eang o gymorth, o wella’r gwasanaeth Cymraeg sydd ar gael i gwsmeriaid o ddarparu nwyddau dwyieithog a chyngor ar recriwtio staff sy’n siarad Cymraeg.  Mae gwasanaeth Cyfieithu hefyd am ddim – ac fe wnaeth 140 o fusnesau fanteisio ar y gwasanaeth hwn yn ystod 12 mis cyntaf y gwaith.  

Un busnes sy'n manteisio ar Ddydd Santes Dwynwen fel cyfle masnachol yw siop No1 a High Street Deli yn y Drenewydd. Dywedodd Elizabeth Mary Evans, y perchennog: 


> "Mae Dydd Santes Dwynwen yn arbennig i ni ac i'n siop am ei fod yn arbennig i'r Cymry. Rydym yn angerddol iawn am ein cynnyrch Cymraeg ac am y ffaith fod y rhan fwyaf ohonynt yn cael eu cynhyrchu yng Nghymru. Ac wrth gwrs, mae Dydd Santes Dwynwen yn dod â mwy o fusnes i'r siop. Yr wythnos hon yn unig – sef wythnos Dydd Santes Dwynwen – mae tua 20% o'n cwsmeriaid wedi dod i mewn yn benodol i ofyn am gardiau a rhoddion ar gyfer Dydd Santes Dwynwen. Ac mae prosiect Cymraeg Byd Busnes yn ein helpu i integreiddio mwy o'r Gymraeg ac i hyrwyddo ein busnes."

Gyda'r cymorth hwn, mae busnesau poblogaidd fel 'Escape Rooms' yn dilyn ôl traed cwmnïau llwyddiannus eraill sy'n dyst i fanteision cofleidio'r iaith Gymraeg. Dywedodd Ellie Daniels, perchennog gêm Escape Rooms Casnewydd: 


> "Rydyn ni'n credu bod yr iaith yn rhan bwysig o ddiwylliant Cymru ac rydym yn awyddus i hyrwyddo’r  defnydd bob dydd ohoni. Buon ni’n gweithio'n agos gyda swyddogion Cymraeg Byd Busnes, a oedd yn hynod gefnogol, i gynnig fersiwn Gymraeg o'n gêm wreiddiol, 'Torture Corp'.  
> "Mae hyn wedi creu llawer o ddiddordeb ychwanegol ac mae wedi creu 'teimlad da' ymhlith ein cwsmeriaid sy'n siarad Cymraeg. Roedd y cyhoeddusrwydd ychwanegol wedi ein helpu i gyrraedd cynulleidfa llawer uwch nag a ragwelwyd ac wedi achosi cynnydd aruthrol mewn cwsmeriaid, nid yn unig ar gyfer ein gêm Gymraeg."

Mae Eluned Morgan,  Gweinidog y Gymraeg a Chysylltiadau Rhyngwladol, yn annog busnesau i fanteisio ar wasanaeth Cymraeg Byd Busnes:


> "Mae cael busnesau preifat yn hanfodol i lwyddiant Cymraeg 2050\. Mae llawer o waith i'w wneud o hyd, ond mae'r gwaith mae Cymraeg Byd Busnes wedi'i wneud hyd yn hyn yn dangos bod busnesau'n barod i ymgysylltu a hoffwn ddiolch i'r swyddogion sydd wedi bod yn eu cefnogi i gynyddu eu defnydd o'r Gymraeg a dangos cariad at yr iaith yn ystod cyfnod dathlu Santes Dwynwen.
> 
> "Credwn fod y Gymraeg mewn Busnes yn dda i fusnes! Gall gweithredu'n ddwyieithog gynyddu boddhad cwsmeriaid. I mi, mae’n beth syml. Os ydych chi'n berchennog busnes sy'n teimlo'n nerfus am gynnig gwasanaethau dwyieithog, dwi am i chi wybod bod swyddogion Cymraeg Byd Busnes yma i'ch cefnogi chi."

Thanks to Welsh in Business, the Welsh Government’s free language support service, more than 1000 businesses have interacted with the Welsh language during the first year of the initiative. Almost 200 businesses have received support to develop action plans to increase their use of Welsh, the Minister for International Relations and the Welsh Language confirmed today.

The initiative’s focus is to increase the number of private businesses using Welsh and, in turn, the number of opportunities for people to use the language locally. 

The national network of Welsh in Business officers are based in the Mentrau Iaith (Language Initiatives) across Wales and rooted in their communities. Engaging with small to medium\-sized private sector businesses, they offer a wide range of support, from improving Welsh language interaction with customers to providing bilingual merchandise and advice on recruiting Welsh speaking staff. A free translation service is also available \- and 140 businesses took advantage of this service within the first 12 months.

One business taking advantage of St Dwynwen’s day as a commercial opportunity is Shop No1 and High Street Deli in Newtown. Elizabeth Mary Evans, owner said: 


> “St. Dwynwen’s Day is special to us and to our shop because it is special to Welsh people. We are very passionate about our Welsh language products and about the fact that most of them are produced in Wales. And of course, St. Dwynwen’s Day brings more business to the shop. This week alone – the week of St. Dwynwen’s Day – about 20% of our customers have come in only to ask for cards and gifts for St. Dwynwen’s Day. And Welsh in Business are helping us to integrate more of the Welsh language and to promote our business.”

With support from the Welsh for Business network, increasingly popular businesses such as ‘The Escape Rooms’ are following in the footsteps of other successful which have seen the benefits of embracing the Welsh language. 

Ellie Daniels, owner of Newport’s escape game, The Escape Rooms, said: 


> “We believe the language is an important part of Welsh culture and we’re keen to promote the everyday use of it. We worked closely with Welsh in Business officers, who were incredibly supportive, to offer a Welsh version of our original game, ‘Torture Corp’.
> 
>  “This has generated a lot of additional interest and it’s created a ‘good\-feeling’ amongst our Welsh speaking customers. The publicity alone helped us reach much higher than anticipated and caused a knock\-on spike in sales across the board, not just for our Welsh language game."

Eluned Morgan, Minister International Relations and the Welsh Language is urging businesses to take advantage of Welsh in Business:


> “Getting private businesses on board is vital to the success of Cymraeg 2050\. There’s still much to do, but the work Cymraeg Byd Busnes has done so far shows that businesses are willing to engage and I’d like to thank the officers who’ve been supporting them to increase their use of the Welsh language and show love to the language around St Dwynwen’s Day.
> 
> “We believe that Welsh in Business is good for business! Operating bilingually can increase customer satisfaction. To me it’s a no\-brainer. If you’re a business owner who feels daunted by offering bilingual services, I want you to know that Welsh in Business is here to support you.”
