Sustainable Business Alliance Forms In Northern Minnesota
The content that follows was originally published on the Institute for Local Self-Reliance website at http://www.ilsr.org/sustainable-business-alliance-forms-northern-minnesota/Little more than six months after its inaugural meeting, the Northland Sustainable Business Alliance (NSBA) has grown to include more than 100 locally owned businesses located in and around the city of Duluth.
NSBA advocates a new approach to economic development that strengthens locally owned businesses while protecting and enhancing the region’s social and environmental assets. The group eschews the conventional growth-at-all-costs model of development.
