The Goochland Business Center is the new home for the Goochland County Economic Development office and the Goochland Chamber of Commerce.
The idea behind the business center is to provide existing and prospective Goochland businesses with a central location for business assistance. Goochland County Economic Development plans to be able to provide training, seminars, and networking events in the Business Center.
“The Goochland Business Center is a unique collaboration between the County and the Chamber to support our vital local businesses,” remarked Susan Lascolette, Chair of the Board of Supervisors. “Goochland is known as a special place where organizations collaborate to serve the community.”
“Having Goochland County Economic Development located together with the Goochland Chamber of Commerce creates great synergy between the county and the Chamber and gives us space to promote our businesses,” said Derek Stamey, Interim County Administrator.
“We are excited to be a part of the Goochland Business Center. This enhances our ability to help Goochland County and its businesses grow,” remarked Bonnie Creasy, Executive Director of the Goochland County Chamber of Commerce. “With Economic Development and the Chamber located in one building, it ensures easier access to economic resources for all businesses.”
Representatives from the Goochland County Board of Supervisors, Goochland Economic Development Authority, Goochland County Economic Development, and the Goochland Chamber of Commerce officially cut the ribbon to open the Goochland Business Center.
