How long have you been a Chamber member? 10 years
I joined the Chamber because…
Even though we do very little business in Logan County we are part of the
community.
Why did you decide to invest in Logan County?
Family and friends. Also the wealth of experienced people from our industry
in Logan County. The 10 people in our office have a combined 234 years of
experience in the store fixture industry. To find this level of experience
in such a small industry is very fortunate for Stuart Solutions.
What products and services do you offer to Logan County?
We have provided fixtures to several of the businesses in Logan County. Our real
market is national retailers.
What does the future of your business look like?
Our business is dependent on the strength of the economy. If people are spending
money, retailers expand and remodel. We have aligned ourselves with some very
strong retailers that are growing in spite of the economy.
