County of Renfrew’s Economic Development Division Seeking Input From Local Businesses

COUNTY OF RENFREW: The County of Renfrew Economic Development Division is conducting a short survey of the local business community within Renfrew County.

“The continuing business challenges created by the COVID-19 pandemic, and the business and social activity restrictions implemented to protect public health due to the Omicron variant, have stalled the much-anticipated economic recovery”, notes County of Renfrew Warden, Debbie Robinson. The Warden added that “In order to best frame a coordinated response from the County, we are requesting the assistance of local business owners and managers by asking that they complete a short survey.” 

Alastair Baird, Manager of Economic Development & Tourism, stated that “the objective of the survey, which takes no more than 10 minutes to complete, is to gain a better understanding of the current state and outlook for our local businesses community and of the local economy overall”. 

The County’s Business Development Officer, David Wybou, has been coordinating with partner organizations to ensure the entire business community receives the survey and has asked that the survey be completed by Friday, February 4^th, 2022. 

Development & Property Committee Chair, Bob Sweet said that “The results of this survey will assist the County of Renfrew to directly assist local businesses and to convey current information to the Federal and Provincial governments to shape business support and recovery programs.”

The County of Renfrew Economic Development Services would like to thank everyone in advance for their cooperation and assistance.
