Jamestown Mayor Sam Teresi
JAMESTOWN – Mayor Sam Teresi is joining communities across the nation in supporting Small Business Week – starting Monday and continuing through May 13. The recognition is in conjunction with the U.S. Small Business Administration.
To help promote small businesses in the city, the mayor has issued a proclamation in an effort to encourage residents to support small, locally owned and operated businesses and Greater Jamestown Region. The proclamation will be filed with the SBA’s Buffalo District Office.
As part of National Small Business Week, the U.S. Small Business Administration takes the opportunity to highlight the impact of outstanding entrepreneurs, small business owners, and others from all 50 states and U.S. territories.
According to U.S. Small Business Administration, more than half of Americans either own or work for a small business. Those small businesses create about two out of every three new jobs in the U.S. each year.
