Take the Business Retention Expansion and Workforce Development survey now

A BREWD launch event was held yesterday on the campus of Olds College of Agriculture & Technology featuring guest speakers, networking opportunities, and lunch.

Sandra Blyth, Economic Development Manager with Invest Olds and the Town of Olds, says BREWD stands for Business Retention, Expansion, and Workforce Development.

She encourages all businesses in Olds and across central Alberta to take the BREWD survey now. There are over $12,000 dollars in prizes available for those who do. Blyth adds, the survey results will tell them what to do to help your business grow and thrive.

The BREWD survey is open from now until February 28th and Blyth says businesses can have their voice heard by filling it out online at CentralAlbertaFirst.ca.
