Business Ideas

The following list is a collection of business ideas gathered from many different sources. The list is intended to assist South Kootenay residents in brainstorming ideas for business that could work in their communities. Our office has not attempted to discover which business ideas are viable in a given area due to the diverse nature of the communities within our service area. These ideas may or may not work in your particular community.

People thinking of starting businesses based on these ideas are urged to thoroughly research the viability of their businesses beforehand. While some of the business ideas may not be viable on their own in a small market area, a combination of compatible businesses may work. Local economic development committees may also find it useful in discovering business opportunities that can lead to diversifying of their communities.
