Last Thursday, the Greater Florence Chamber of Commerce hosted a Small Business Social at the FMU Steven F. Gately Gallery in downtown Florence. The event brought together local small business owners who shared ideas for future business programming with the Chamber’s Small Business Committee.
City, county, and state representatives were also present to show their support for small businesses in the area.
David Fountain, Lee Freeman, Dr. Lesley Kirby AuD, Robbie Norris, Marvin James, and Malorie Steadman were recognized for organizing and sponsoring the event as members of the Chamber’s Small Business Committee. Additional sponsors included TAB (The Alternative Board), Anderson Brothers Bank, Genesis Landscapes, Lifetime Hearing Services, The Floor Store, and The UPS Stores.
