Check out the locations of the new businesses we highlighted.
There’s a ton of development happening and planned for Chattanooga but when we look back at recent openings, we see a lot of food + drink, and you can bet we’re excited about it.
Outside of the “Um, where are we going to eat” category, the past few months did bring a new business, New Bloom Labs, from Chattanooga businessman John Kerns, whose startup is offering compliance and quality control testing to the exploding hemp industry.
And Viget, a company that brands, designs + builds software products for startups and big corporations, opened an office here.
And, now to the food.
