Existing Business Visitation program-Tell us what you think!

The City of Lakeland (Economic Development Commission), Lakeland Chamber of Commerce and the Memphis Chamber of Commerce are cooperating in a program to visit each Lakeland business and ask what is good and bad about Lakeland and how Lakeland can assist our existing businesses.

Nanette Smith, Administrative Planning Coordinator, is coordinating and conducting the visits with the assistance of the Memphis Chamber of Commerce. Nanette has completed several Lakeland business visits and has received some excellent feedback.

We encourage all business persons to be honest, both in the positives and negatives, on doing business in Lakeland. We want to listen and make recommend changes as appropriate to make Lakeland a better and more profitable place four our existing businesses!

The City is sending notices to individual businesses on a phased periodic basis. If you don’t or haven’t gotten a letter, and wish a visit in the near future, contact Lakeland City Hall to schedule a visit. We want your input!

If you have comments, suggestions or recommendations on any aspect of the City of Lakeland, of course you are encouraged to contact us at any time.
