This week, we pause to recognize the heart and hustle behind every small business. Each one represents more than just a company, it’s someone’s dream, built with long hours, courage, creativity, and community spirit.

Small businesses are where innovation begins and where connections feel most personal. They’re the cafés that know your order by heart, the local makers who turn ideas into craft, and the service providers who go above and beyond because they care.

We understand the journey - the challenges, the risks, and the incredible sense of purpose that comes from serving customers and community. We are deeply grateful for everyone who supports local enterprises.

This Small Business Week, let’s celebrate not just success stories, but the persistence, teamwork, and passion that keep our communities strong.

Special shout-out to Distillery New Brunswick for winning the “Foodie’s Choice Award” from Food & Beverage Atlantic for their amazing Vodka Lemonade! A true example of local creativity and excellence shining bright across our region.

To every entrepreneur, maker, and dreamer - keep moving forward, keep building, and keep believing.
