Hopkinsville’s Small Business Commission was established in 2023, and Commission Chair Deanna Sova and City Administrative Coordinator Diane Turner recently appeared on WHOP to highlight the group’s mission.
Sova shared that the commission was formed to support small businesses and act as a line of communication between them and city officials.
Turner says they are working on partnering with Local in My City a free advertising platform based in Clarksville. Folks will be able to go to localinmycity.com or download the app to search through small businesses in Hopkinsville.
Sova says 80% of the businesses in town are locally based, and she hopes the partnership shows residents that some of their everyday shopping can be done while supporting a Hopkinsville business
The commission meets on the second Tuesday of each month at 11 a.m., and more information about the group is available at hopkinsvilleky.us.
