Over the course of five years, ANCA\u2019s Center of Businesses in Transition (CBIT), would help connect the Cilleys with the right buyer, as well as a team of local providers and technical services to support them through the transition process.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With the goal of assisting more businesses like the Canoe Outfitters, which was purchased by employees <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Maeghan Farnham and <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Steve Cerri <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">in July 2023, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">the CBIT partnership<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> has announced upcoming networking and learning opportunities that aim to connect retiring business owners and prospective buyers with customized business transition support.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cSaint Regis Canoe Outfitters\u2019 story demonstrates the kind of time and preparation it can take to transfer an existing business to new owners,\u201d said ANCA Executive Director Elizabeth Cooper. She said it is not uncommon to take three or more years to find a buyer, prepare financials, and transfer other management aspects of a business. \u201cThis is why the CBIT team is so eager to help small businesses work through the process. It can be time-consuming and complex, but it\u2019s also critical for keeping our small businesses operating in our communities.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">North Country business owners who are ready to sell now or in the next several years, as well as entrepreneurs who are interested in purchasing an existing business, are invited to participate in CBIT\u2019s programs. 2024 programming includes matchmaking events, educational workshops and opportunities to meet with any of the 20 CBIT community liaisons and partners who represent 16 organizations across ANCA\u2019s 14-county service area.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The partnership confirmed its 2024 team at its annual retreat on January 26. Returning liaison and partner organizations include Franklin County Economic Development Corporation, Hamilton County Economic Development, Lewis County Economic Development\/Naturally Lewis, LivingADK, St. Lawrence County Chamber of Commerce, Saranac Lake Area Chamber of Commerce, Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce, Greater Watertown-North Country Chamber of Commerce, Adirondack Economic Development Corp., Adirondack Park Agency Economic Services, Essex County Industrial Development Agency, SUNY Canton Small Business Development Center (SBDC) and the Ti-Alliance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With the goal of expanding CBIT services to more North Country communities, CBIT welcomed two new liaisons who are based in New York\u2019s Mohawk Valley: Denise Cavanaugh of the Herkimer County Chamber of Commerce and Heather Devitt of Mohawk Valley Economic Development District, Inc. (MVEDD). The inclusion of these two or<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ganizations is supported by a grant from the Community Foundation of Herkimer and Oneida Counties. The program\u2019s reach has also been expanded with the addition of Robert Griffin of the Onondaga SBDC at Onondaga Community College to the partnership.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThis is a big step for CBIT to reach an additional six counties located on the fringe or border of the Adirondack Park,\u201d said Dan Kieferbach, Director of Community Engagement at LivingADK, a nonprofit that serves communities in the Western Central Adirondack region. Kieferbach has been a CBIT community liaison since 2023. \u201cWe are excited to see this program enter new territory and look forward to strengthening our partnerships as the program continues to grow.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Scheduled upcoming virtual events include a webinar titled \u201cRole of a Real Estate Professional in a Business Transition\u201d on Tuesday, February 6 at 9:00-10:00 a.m. and an online \u201cMatchmaking Event for Buyers and Sellers\u201d on Friday, March 1 at 3:30-5:30 p.m. Both events are supported by funding from Community Bank.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The CBIT partnership is focused on four main goals for the new year: expanding opportunities for aspiring entrepreneurs to visit the region through its Familiarization Tour Program; enhancing the experience of aspiring entrepreneurs who engage with the Center; measuring the program\u2019s economic impact on local communities and the broader North Country region; and preparing for the <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2025 Small Communities. Big Opportunities Conference<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, a two-day gathering that focuses on matchmaking, networking and sharing business transition information and resources.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since 2019, CBIT has supported over 250 owners preparing for retirement or other life changes and engaged over 120 individuals interested in owning a business in the region. The partnership supported successful ownership transitions at 63 North Country businesses, which retain local jobs as well as key products and services that enhance quality of life in their rural communities. Business transition success stories are shared in CBIT\u2019s <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adirondack.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/5-Year-Center-for-Businesses-in-Transition.pdf\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Five-Year Case Study<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, which can be viewed on the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adirondack.org\/center-for-businesses-in-transition\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Center\u2019s website<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cEven the smallest of these businesses have a big impact on the overall economic health of our region,\u201d said ANCA Entrepreneurial Economy Program Director Danielle Delaini. \u201cEach shop, each restaurant, each service provider \u2014 they serve local needs and bring diversity and vibrancy to their communities. Our 2024 team is extremely knowledgeable about their local areas and passionate about CBIT\u2019s mission. We are all eager to support more North Country businesses with the connections and resources they need to successfully move on to the next generation.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition to St. Regis Canoe Outfitters in Saranac Lake, other business transitions that were recently supported by CBIT include My Hope Flower Farm in Ticonderoga, N.Y., Nature\u2019s Storehouse in Canton, N.Y., Crave Diner and Vanilla Bean Bake Shop (formerly Gary\u2019s Restaurant) in Lowville, N.Y., and Adirondack Awards &amp; Promotions in Lake Placid, N.Y.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CBIT launched in 2018 with grant funding from the Northern Border Regional Commission (NBRC) and has since been supported by funding from the United States Department of Agriculture Rural Community Development Initiative, National Grid\u2019s Project C, Franklin County Government Office of Economic Development, Adirondack Foundation and local business sponsors.
