Small Business Information
Small businesses are the foundation of the U.S. economy. They employ over half the private sector workforce, represent over 80% of all business establishments, and create most of the new jobs across the nation. In Muskingum County, small businesses have the same kind of economic impact, and the future potential for growth through smaller firms is enormous.
That’s why the Chamber of Commerce specializes in assisting small businesses. A wide variety of services are offered to meet the needs of most any company or entrepreneur in order to help them start, stay competitive and grow.
