Dighton committee reports 24 new businesses, revives business-spotlight video
Summary
The Dighton Economic Development Committee said 24 new businesses opened over the past 12 months, previewed a renewed business-spotlight video and described two requests for assistance from existing and prospective business owners.
Chair (Speaker 1) opened the meeting by listing new businesses and said, “We actually had had 24 new businesses open in the past 12 months.” The committee described a revived business-spotlight video series; the most recent shoot featured Kate’s PetSpa and cable staff are editing footage for upcoming posting.
The committee also noted two assistance requests: an existing home-based car-detailing business seeking growth advice and a prospective commercial tenant asking for a meeting to review the process for opening in town. Chair said the committee sends a welcome card and information to newly registered businesses and maintains a town business directory to help outreach. The committee did not take formal action on these items and will continue outreach through social media and the directory.
