Retail News, etc.
I’ve been talking to a number of business people in the downtown - merchants and professionals and the news is not all bad. Yes, buying in some areas has slowed down, but a number of the people I’ve spoken to are doing fine and some are doing great!.
Gito is expanding their shoe department. Giovanna has her customers that have been buying their spring and summer wardrobes (includes free alterations!). The Luggage Corner has a lot of customers that are traveling and need suitcases. That Look has had a steady stream of customers each time I’ve stopped by. My Little Princess has added an adult line of clothing that has been doing well. That’s just a few.
Bennett Studios is booked solid for more than 2 months. If you need a session today, you won’t be able to get in until late June, early July! More and more musicians are coming to Bennett Studios from New York for their sessions. Congratulations Dae! This is one of the treasures in our downtown.
As I hear more from the businesses I will pass the information on to you. For members, send me information to post about your business (sales, events, news)
