“Small businesses are the backbone of the economy. They create jobs, foster innovation, and contribute significantly to local communities. When you shop at a local store or hire a neighborhood service, you’re directly supporting the local economy and helping to sustain the unique character of our community.”
Approach
To help you succeed, we need to learn of your businesses’ needs. Only by understanding the challenges you are facing can we facilitate the growth of local small businesses like yours and grow the economic resilience of our rural community.
The Small Business Center has moved from downtown Kinston to the Aerospace and Advanced Manufacturing Center on Highway 58, just north of Kinston High School. See location information below.
