Nick Davis and Jason Duff from Small Nation recently participated in a Small Business Showcase in honor of National Small Business Week. The event, hosted by the House Committee on Small Business and Chairman Rep. Roger Williams, brought together 15 small businesses from across the country to recognize the contributions of Main Street businesses.
During the showcase held in the U.S. Capitol Building, Duff, Davis, and Karen Kerrigan from the Small Business and Entrepreneurship Council shared insights about Small Nation’s work in revitalizing small towns. They highlighted projects like Six Hundred Downtown Pizzeria, Brewfontaine craft beer bar, and the Historic Opera Block project in Downtown Bellefontaine.
Kerrigan commended the entrepreneurial spirit of businesses like Small Nation and expressed her appreciation for their advocacy efforts. She emphasized that small businesses play a vital role in economic growth.
The event was attended by important figures like House Speaker Mike Johnson and Majority Whip Tom Emmer. Duff expressed his gratitude for the opportunity to celebrate Small Business Week on Capitol Hill and emphasized the importance of advocacy for Main Street businesses.
In addition to Small Nation, other small businesses from various states also participated in the showcase. They shared their stories of success and challenges faced while building their businesses.
The event was well received by members of Congress and House GOP leadership who recognized the significant role of small businesses in economic growth. They pledged to continue supporting small business owners through policies that promote entrepreneurship and provide resources to help them grow their businesses.
Small Nation is one such business that has found success through its commitment to revitalizing small towns. By creating unique experiences like those at Six Hundred Downtown Pizzeria, Brewfontaine craft beer bar, and Historic Opera Block project, they have helped breathe new life into downtown areas across Ohio.
