This is our annual Economic Development issue! In West Side Story we learn about Chamber of Commerce 2019 Business Leader of the Year Josh Whitfield and his vision for the West District, Statesboro’s newest and most innovative development designed for living, working and playing. You'll meet the new Executive Director and President of the Statesboro-Bulloch County Chamber of Commerce, Skip Alford, who started work on January 6, 2020, and Stephen Pennington, the new CEO of EGRMC. We’ve just gotten the latest figures on Manufacturing from the Bulloch County Development Authority. In our story “The Sweet Spot for Manufacturing” we share how much Bulloch County produces and we also have very special sections highlighting our Leading Lawyer, Women in Business and Industry Leaders in Statesboro. Plus a feature on staying active to get you in shape for this New Year! Thank you for reading.
