A Palmerston property owner is the latest to commit to participation in Renew Northern Wellington.
A collaborative initiative of the Town of Minto, Mapleton Township and the Township of Wellington North, Renew Northern Wellington “helps to put talented people into downtown storefronts to gain exposure, build their business, and become a sustainable enterprise,” states a press release from the organization.
It offers empty downtown stores for a small participation fee to assist those involved in getting their business built and becoming successful.
“The program offers minimal risk and investment but is unlimited in its opportunities for success,” the release states.
Since the program’s launch in May 2015, three properties in Mount Forest have committed to participation “in an effort to help entrepreneurs get exposure and grow their business by providing low cost access to a storefront location.”
Existing building owners looking for activity in an empty storefront or entrepreneur’s wondering if their talent, idea, creative endeavour, or business could become successful and profitable are encouraged to contact program coordinators through their local municipal office: April Marshall and Dale Small (Wellington North), Belinda Wick-Graham (Minto) or Crystal Ellis (Mapleton) or go to www.renewnorthernwellington.ca for more information.
