The Town of Essex has launched a new business attraction campaign.
The concept “What You’re Made of Is What We’re Looking For,” places local business owners as the focal point of the project.
“There are no better spokespeople for local investment than business owners themselves,” said Nelson Silveira, Economic Development Officer. “While the campaign is designed to make connections with potential investors and bring awareness to the incentives we offer as a municipality, it’s also to build excitement and celebrate the wide range of individuals and businesses operating here.”
In its first year, the campaign will feature five local businesses and their owners:
- Carl and Rita Hulme, Blimey’s British Shop, Harrow Centre
- Kim and Ken Dennison, Onyx Fitness Solutions, Essex Centre
- Chelsae Schurman of Garfield’s, Colchester Centre
- Krista and Brad Brenko, Brenko’s House of Pizza, Essex Centre
- Steve Pomerleau, FLO Hardwoods, Harrow
The campaign’s call to action, #JoinUsInEssex connects to the Town’s “Where You Belong” branding and points to a custom website www.joinusinessex.ca which hosts information about the Town’s economic development programs and incentives.
