Business toughs out 'rough' area

THUNDER BAY — A Thunder Bay business considers themselves lucky to be able to transition to a different business model in the wave of vagrancy, theft, staff safety and a cooler economy.

"Our customer orders from all the different businesses we work with in printing their logos on our sustainable clothing is pretty much the majority of our revenue now but do still have the retail store, for now," Buosi said. "We started locking our door and we installed a doorbell that you have to ring to come in," she said. "That helped for a while but it's not perfect. There are still people coming in and stealing and they get violent to our staff. It scares our staff and that is a major safety concern."

"The minute the weather got warmer, our problems quadrupled. Everywhere you see when you look out our window looks unsafe and that massively impacts our potential profits for the day because customers are scared to come in the door."
