Business View Magazine - Sept 2023

2 BUSINESS VIEW MAGAZINE VOLUME 10, ISSUE 9 EDI TOR ’ S NOTES It won’t be long before we see the leaves start to drop from the trees and the days shorten as Autumn is slowly creeping up on us. Families are turning their attention away from summer activities and focusing on the school year ahead. Following suit, companies across the US and Canada as well as the many diverse municipalities are also switching gears with their focus turned towards the fourth quarter of 2023 and what lies ahead. At Business View Publications, we too are focused on an exciting lineup of features that we will be bringing you in this issue and for our Autumn publications that are in the works. For this issue, we had a chance to sit down with executives representing some of the country’s most dynamic companies to discuss their upcoming business agenda. We also spoke with representatives from a host of some of the fastest-growing regions across the US to determine how they are anticipating economic expansion and still putting their valued residents first. Our September issue is brimming with success stories that we are eager to share with you as you enjoy the last few days of the lazy hazy days of summer. Capturing the momentum of commercial and residential development as well as the design know-how to bring construction projects to life filled our pages for this issue. We bring you in-depth features with leading players in the field including Beachfront Builders, CW & Sons Infrastructure, and Bloomin Blinds as well as giving you a realtors perspective with an exciting feature profiling First Weber, a leader in the homes market. Aero Instruments and Avionics, IntelliTrak, Lenze Americas, Spirac USA, Superior Fresh, and STOBER Drives also topped our feature list of innovative, forward-thinking industry leaders we were fortunate to profile in our September issue. Each of the companies we profiled showed the resilience to bounce back from pandemic woes and show revenue numbers that are heading skywards. Economic growth is ripe and infrastructure initiatives have taken center stage for the municipalities that we interviewed. We sat down with city officials from Clayton, New Jersey, Corpus Christi, Texas, Fayette County and Fitzgerald, Georgia, Middleton, Wisconsin, Logansport, Indiana to Shafter, California and Warrenville, Illinois. As business retention and attraction numbers continue to rise and upgrades to vital municipal services are in full swing for these regions, all without exception are ensuring that the needs of their residents take center stage. Also flying through the quarter of 2023, are some of the fastest-growing regional airports in the US and we spoke to their Airport Directors for a front- row seat into some of their upcoming plans to meet increased aviation traffic. We were fortunate for September’s issue to profile Monroe International Airport, Rick Husband Amarillo International Airport as well as Ogdensburg International Airport for a birdseye view into airport initiatives taking off for these busy aviation hubs. With all our profiles we hope that our valued business leaders learn a little something new about their relevant business sector as well as something about key developments within other business sectors that may serve to increase productivity and represent a model to strive for. As we continue to bring you features covering the very best in business, aviation, and municipal developments, we hope that the last days of summer are spent with family and friends, enjoying relaxing fun, and building great memories for the year ahead.
