THE NORTH COAST’S BUSINESS GUIDE 2018
Welcome to the 2018 edition of Who’s Who — one of our most
popular annual special editions. Every year, we salute the
businesses who power the economy on the North Coast, and the
employees who make those businesses successful.
We are very proud to feature five businesses on the cover this year
that were randomly chosen, but represent both large and small
employers, retail and service. They’re a great example of the wide
variety of business that provide employment, goods and services
that contribute to the our quality of life in Clatsop County.
We also celebrate our local businesses with a gold seal in each
advertisement signifying their number of years of operation.
Enjoy perusing the the history and longevity of your business
community.
