Ep 12 steps into the world of business in Palm Beach County. We first speak with Jordana Jarjura, president of Menin Development. Jordana talks a bit about her stint on the Delray Beach City Commission. That experience, combined with her business experience, law degree and MBA, have served her well as Menin (headquartered in Delray Beach) has been changing the landscape of this City by the Sea. From the Delray Beach Market to the Ray (a 141 room boutique hotel), Lion Fish and Johnnie Brown's, Mennin has captured the flavor of Delray Beach.
From Delray Beach we jump to the Business Development Board of Palm Beach County. Under the leadership of its president, Kelly Smallridge, Palm Beach County has become the go to place for many companies looking to escape the high taxes and deteriorating infrastructure of the northeast. Kelly discloses the secret sauce of her success at attracting corporations to Palm Beach County.
