Small Business Week 2025 - Message from the Mayor
Posted on 10/21/2025
Charlottetown Mayor Philip Brown Today Issued the Following Statement about Small Business Week:
“As we celebrate Small Business Week, it’s a time to recognize the crucial role small businesses play in driving the success of our Island’s economy and communities. Across Canada, over 98 per cent of businesses are small enterprises, and here in Charlottetown, they are truly the heart of our local economy. From long-standing family shops and restaurants to creative startups, small business owners make important contributions to job creation, economic growth and the unique character of our city.
This Small Business Week, I encourage everyone to get out and support our businesses – visit your favourite store, share a meal with friends and family, and acknowledge the dedication behind every business that helps Charlottetown thrive. When we support local, we invest in our community and help secure a more prosperous future for our city.
Thank you to all our local businesses for everything you do. Happy Small Business Week 2025!”
Philip Brown
Mayor of Charlottetown
