"GSBA has always supported me, my community, and my business, but when the pandemic struck I realized the true value of the organization. GSBA helped me navigate supportive small business programs when I needed them and helped me launch my pandemic pivot: Bite Society. Through connections with major customers and venues, Bite Society took off and rolling with the support of GSBA. They are always my first call when I need help with my business."
