Whatever you’re looking for, there is probably a business in our immediate area that provides it.

The key is for residents to now show their support. I’m sure there are many others who haven’t reached out for coverage for one reason or another, but it shows there is growth and opportunity taking place, even if it is not in the large industrial operations we would like to see. A look through our business pages over the last month have shown at least half-a-dozen businesses opening their doors. Whether on our own, or through covering events from local chambers of commerce, we work to inform our readers of what businesses have opened in our tri-county coverage area. Businesses bring revenue to the owner, but they also create jobs which then allow others an opportunity to have a reliable stream of money for their own lives and their families.

It’s an investment, no matter what you are doing – an investment in yourself, an investment in others and an investment in your community. There are financial needs, finding a good location, hiring reliable staff, dealing with local regulations and more before even being able to open your doors for the first day. Starting a business of any size isn’t an easy process. Whether they are clothing boutiques, home furnishing businesses, fitness centers, hair salons or whatever, it is good to see such investments taking place in our communities.
