Tom Coke has been appointed Main Street Ambassador by the Town of Essex.
As part of the My Main Street Local Business Accelerator, the ambassador will support the revitalization of the two main street communities in the Town of Essex.
Working closely with local business owners and entrepreneurs in Essex Centre and Harrow, the ambassador will help grow existing businesses and welcome new entrepreneurs to the area.
As a part of the Local Business Accelerator, business owners will be eligible for detailed market research, data analysis, wrap-around business support and more.
As a skilled community developer with over eight years’ experience working in local government and non-profit, Coke brings a wealth of knowledge to the position.
He most recently served as the council coordinator for the Town of Lasalle.
“We are thrilled to have Tom join the team.” said Nelson Silveira, economic development officer. “This is a unique position, and it will add tremendous value to the Harrow and Essex Centre Streetscape Project by supporting the revitalization of our two main street communities.”
