The Wednesday Chamber of Commerce Business Expo not only gives businesses the opportunity to get in front of potential clients, but for businesses to network with each other.

While the DeWitt County Development Council is geared towards helping existing businesses and future business owners, their leader says the Business Expo is a great opportunity for them. Ruth Stauffer is the DeWitt County Development Council Executive Director and says the Wednesday event gives her an opportunity to network with DeWitt County businesses she may not otherwise have the opportunity to do.

For Stauffer, she says the Business Expo is primarily a retail market. She explains they ask them a variety of questions that involve anything from expansion to training to complimentary services that could come to the community. Stauffer wants the DCDC to be a resource for the many businesses in the community.
