spotlight on august I n August we see businesses adapting to new business norms and they and government continue the road to economic recovery on both sides of the border. More and more government restrictions are being lifted in attempts to bring our personal and business lives back to normal, the new normal. Spotlight sat down with Jonathan “Jonny” Lali, Sales Development Manager &member of the Product Development team, and LinseyMcTag- gart, SalesManager &member of the Product Development team, of Lago Apparel, located in Langley, British Columbia to learn how for over 32 years they have been building relationships across Canada offering high quality branded products, such as hoodies, hats and sleepwear, for the corporate, brewery and souvenir focused markets. Staying in Western Canada but moving eastward to St. Albert, Alberta, we chat with Andrea and David Scade, co-owners of Black Diamond Distillery, about their whirlwind years that brought marriage, two kids and a new distillery that was inspired by an engagement ring. Moving further East and South of the border to Minneapolis, Minnesota we have the opportunity to speak with two of the owners of Royal Foundry Craft Spirits, Andy and Nikki McLain, and learn about the British pastimes of pub skittles and cycle speedway as well as the art of crafting traditional British spirits. Staying South of the border and moving to the East Coast we talk with Adrian Gram and Brandon Arnold, co-founders and co-owners of Brew Movers in Charlotte, North Carolina about the intricate logistics of moving beer, malts and even whole brewing systems across North America and beyond. Tanya Chedrawy of Tanya Media is, “in the spotlight” as we learn how this Actor, Producer, Writer and CEO reclaimed her confidence and passion for assisting entrepreneurs claim their space in front of their key audiences. We want to thank all those involved in putting this issue together, as we know there are still difficult roads ahead for small and medium sized businesses. These are extremely demanding times for business, but we promise to keep sharing business success and the people behind making it all happen. We are all in this together.
