Project details

What we need
  • A compilation of research on a specific topic (e.g. industry best practices, literature review, media contacts, industry trends, etc.) including a list of sources
  • Recommendations on areas for further exploration/research
  • Note: This project is not designed to be used for prospect or grant research
Additional details

We are looking to create a database of veterinarian offices, doggie daycares, dog grooming salons, and mom and pop dog food stores for our new dog biscuit business, Bowtie Biscuits. Boxwood Junction is an inclusive community for people with disabilities, providing employment opportunities and housing. The area for this list is Morris County, Union County, Somerset County, Middlesex County, Hunterdon County and Monmouth County in NJ.

What we have in place
  • We can provide an example of what we need in the listing: Name of company, address, website, phone, email and person to contact.
How this will help
This project will save us $3,409 , allowing us to put that money toward raw materials, packaging, equipment and training.

We are starting a dog biscuit business where our members will be learning how to label, package and sell the biscuits at various local outlets. This database will enable us to contact and visit local businesses which can become sales outlets for us. We want to be sure we have found all of the businesses within these categories in our target area.
