/PTBOCanada is delighted to be running StooNews columns each week here, spotlighting new businesses and startups in Peterborough and the Kawarthas. Here is this week’s edition…
Canveda is a Peterborough-based grower of Health Canada licensed medical-grade cannabis and they have just announced the launch of their recreational brand called Strain Rec. It will be available at local licensed cannabis stores as well as the Ontario Cannabis Store.
Canveda employs 25 people locally and they’ve worked closely with Fleming College to develop an internship program with their business school.
NanoNation Canada is a 100% Indigenous-owned, Peterborough-based company specializing in the distribution and application of antimicrobial cleaning products, to hospitals, long-term care facilities, schools, food processing plants, restaurants, retail outlets and more.
NanoNation has just announced that it is bringing its cleaning solutions to the retail market thanks to its partnership with Canadian-made Bacoban products, which will be manufactured in Lindsay. Watch for retail outlets coming soon, but in the meantime, you can purchase the product online at their official website.
The Peterborough Chamber’s annual Seniors Showcase will be a virtual event this year. The popular event draws hundreds of seniors each year to attend workshops and visit the exhibitor booths.
This year the showcase will take place online the entire month of June with a great lineup of informative workshops, a panel discussion and more. If you’d like to showcase your company in a five-minute video, check out the details at the Peterborough Chamber of Commerce’s website.
Many people in the community are still trying to come to terms with the tragic loss of Jessica Dalliday on April 6th. Jess was the owner of Pilates On Demand, touched many lives and has been honoured in many ways in the last month.
Now, Inspire, the Women’s Portrait Project, has decided to permanently honour Jess by dedicating their annual She Inspires Me campaign in her name. The names of six women were released last week and you can read their stories, and read about Jessica Dalliday’s Inspiring life at her website.
