StoosNews Spotlight: Check Out The Business Beat This Week Featuring McLeod’s EcoWater, Century 21 United, Chamber of Commerce and RoadSide Greetings

PTBOCanada is delighted to be running StoosNews columns each week here, spotlighting new businesses and startups in Peterborough and the Kawarthas. Here is this week’s edition… 

McLeod’s EcoWater recently announced the opening of their third location. Owners Rowan and Lillie Fleming say the new Port Perry location will be a popular spot to refill water jugs, just like their Bowmanville and Peterborough stores.

McLeod’s is a full-service water treatment business, serving the area for over 40 years with under-sink drinking water systems, whole-home filtration, water softening and well water treatment. All backed by local service and expertise.

Century 21 United recently decided to capitalize on their existing office in Lakefield and expand and renovate the space. Located on Queen Street next to Foodland, Broker/Owner Vanessa Oake Hogan says the expanded space offers a private boardroom with a smart TV for client presentations, touchdown workstations with printing facilities, a lounge area, plus a beautiful porch and a great big window to enjoy views of Lakefield. Once the lockdown ends Century 21 realtors will be on duty 7 days a week.

The annual Chamber of Commerce Seniors Showcase is happening the entire month of June. There are nine workshops on everything from decluttering to gardening, nutrition to transit plus lots of information from participating exhibitors. Everything is on the Chamber website and available anytime. If you would like your businesses profiled in a five-minute video, there is still lots of time for the Chamber to help you get it recorded. Visit peterboroughchamber.ca for details.

RoadSide Greetings is hard at work, adding lots more lawn greetings for birthdays, anniversaries and especially graduations. Last year, owner, 15-year-old Hannah MacDonald sold 225 Graduation signs and raised $1800 for #ptbostrong. This year Hannah is hoping to top that and donate the proceeds to Hospice Peterborough, who helped her through the passing of her grandparents this year.
