Dear Readers,
It won’t be long before families will be gathering for holiday celebrations and kids will be eagerly anticipating the end of classes for winter break. I mentioned in my October Editors letter that I am having a hard time coming to grips with how fast time is passing, and low and behold here we are just a few weeks away from a new year!
It is hard to believe that another year has passed here in the offices of Business View Publications. With all my colleagues hard at work bringing you in-depth features on companies that truly are on the cutting edge, as well as producing a lineup of city profiles that highlight the growth we are seeing in municipalities across the continent, we are embracing the passage of time and eagerly anticipating the year that lies ahead.
Our December issue is brimming with success stories that we are eager to share with you as you enjoy the last few weeks of 2023 and also embrace the festivities of the holiday season.
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 Raykon Construction, Lautz Lassig Custom Builders, Eclipse Development, and Alair Homes. With top-tier initiatives, expertise in the local market, and a relationship-driven approach, these companies are leading the construction path forward.
Leading companies filled the pages for our December issue from Chem Carriers, CH Four Biogas and Building Zone Industries, CTL Engineering to Homevestors of America Inc. and Gulf Coast Aluminum. These companies and others we were fortunate to also profile topped our feature list of innovative, forward-thinking industry leaders. Each of the companies we profiled showed the resilience to bounce back from pandemic woes and show revenue numbers that continue to head 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 Amherstburg, Ontario, Ayden, North Carolina, Bristol, Virginia, Craig, Colorado to Hampton, Georgia, and Imperial Beach, California. 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 last half of this year’s fourth financial quarter, are some of the most dynamic and 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 given a first-class view of Chippewa Valley Regional Airport, Devil’s Lake Regional Airport, St. Clair County International Airport, Waterloo Regional Airport, and Lebanon Municipal Airport among others.
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 you cherish the time that you have with friends and loved ones this holiday season and that every one of you appreciates the everyday blessings while looking ahead to the new year!
