New retail could revitalize East End’s vacant storefronts
ELLSWORTH -- Four businesses have decided to test a brick-and-mortar store on Broadway Street as a part of Ellsworth Chamber’s Pop-Up program.
Pop-Up Ellsworth is an initiative to get small businesses to try out a physical storefront without committing long term to the place. Through the program, the chamber covers the lease and the utilities until Dec. 29.
The new businesses give life to vacant storefronts, making it a win for both the businesses and for East End’s commercial district, chamber executives said.
