Overview
Business retention and expansion (BR&E) began as a business visitation program in which community members would interview businesses, identify and prioritize action areas to support businesses, then establish and follow steps to accomplish those priority actions. A BR&E program can benefit any community-regardless of locale, existing businesses are the engine of economic growth. This factsheet discusses what BR&E programs are available and how they benefit the community. (2 pages).
