Newsroom

Hello, fellow Sault Tribe business owners! We would like to make you aware of an effort to work together with other Sault Tribe member-owned businesses to support, educate and advocate for each other. We are in the early stages of forming a Sault Tribe member-owned business association and would love to have your business join us.

Some of our first goals:
 • Name our organization and appoint leadership.
 • Create a list of every Sault Tribe member-owned business we can identify.
 • Create a description of the products or services each business offers.
 • Classify each business by what industry they serve.
 • Explore ways to publish/promote the list as part of a Buy Sault Tribe campaign.

Future goals include:
 • Educational opportunities for member businesses.
 • Networking events fostering peer to peer learning.
 • Celebratory event recognizing successful Sault Tribe businesses.
 • Advocacy for Sault Tribe businesses at the local, state and national level.

Please reach out to any of the founding members listed below, or feel free to contact my office directly.
