A longtime Miles City distributor of gun powder for hunters and target shooters who load their own ammunition has been bought by a national brand.
Kansas-based Hodgdon Powder Co. announced its purchase of Western Powders, Inc. earlier this month. With the acquisition, Hodgdon has grown to 80 employees in three locations. Six of Western Powders' employees will remain based in Miles City.

'There's fear:' Racine business owners want education vs. COVID fines

As expected, the U.S. economy blew away previous growth records last quarter, according to the latest report from the Commerce Department. But take those rosy numbers with a truckload of salt.

The 10th Annual "Hottest Business Day in Paradise" Expo is all set for Feb. 10 at the Charlotte Harbor Event and Conference Center. Both the chamber and the event center have this whole health safety situation down pat.
We don't take any chances with the face masks, social distancing, hand-washing, and crowd-size guidelines. Nope, we just don't. And, knock on wood, so far, so good.
Our member businesses have definitely benefited from the expo for the past nine years and we so no reason why 2021 would be anything but bigger and better. In reality, the expo is just as much about business-to-business education and camaraderie as it is an opportunity to interact with a tremendous number of potential customer walk-ins.
