For Business Owners/Entrepreneurs Throughout this Seven County Region

Courtesy of the Ozark Heritage Region:  a not-for-profit organization of Economic and Community Development individuals and communities across the seven county region.http://www.ohr.org/

With the Support of:

University of Missouri Outreach and Extension (U O&E)
Small Business Development Center (SBDC at SMSU-WP)
Missouri Enterprise / MAMTC-Missouri

INTRODUCTION

As a result of the Ozark Heritage Region’s Business Retention and Expansion (BR&E) efforts, there was a general consensus from businesses in this seven county region that they needed additional information in basically these following areas:

a) Business Management and Planning
b) Export and Foreign Markets
c) Financing Programs
d) Regional Banks
e) Marketing Strategies
f) Workforce Development
g) State/Federal Regulations 
h) Government Marketing Assistance
i) Recycling & Reducing Business/Process Wastes
j) Disability Requirements
k) Technical and Engineering Support or Assistance
l) Women and Minority Business Assistance
m) Economic and Community Developers

This organization is simply trying to help businesses obtain the information they need to be successful and is not trying to market any organizations or businesses included in this directory and should not be held liable for any of these referrals.

This information was as up-to-date as possible upon release, but may be subject to change.

This effort made possible through a grant from the Missouri Department of Economic Development.
