Let’s Welcome New Business
Over the years we have seen many businesses come and go in Saugeen Shores. I can only think it is a good thing to have this happen as it widens our commercial appeal to the many people who come through our town on a daily basis. Over the past few weeks, I have been hearing some disturbing reports that a new business that is within weeks of opening in our downtown core has not been given a very nice welcome from some “fellow business” (I use that loosely) persons. Now, I have always been under the impression that competition is good and lord I should know that being in the business that I am in. This new endeavour will be an added feature to our main street and I truly believe that we should open our arms to this and any other business that wants to take a chance on our growing community. We should be banding together to assist anyone who is trying to initiate a new biz; not try to tear them down before they even get started. Might I say, this business is very much enhancing the block that it is in, pretty well redoing the entire building both inside and out; perhaps there are some other business people who should follow, not only their lead, but the lead of a few stores that have taken the initiative to make their buildings more enticing to the public who, are in fact, the ones who spend the money. Let’s think about it, eh!!
