National Small Business Week recognizes the contributions of entrepreneurs and small business owners and celebrates their tenacity. Over the past year, the City of Columbia has introduced a number of Business Friendly initiatives to streamline operations and encourage economic growth. This year, the city will recognize several small business owners. To kick-off Small Business Week, Mr. Jonathan Upton, owner of Craft Axe, will be the first to be recognized.
