BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT

Provided by the Paradise Ridge Chamber of Commerce.

All businesses featured in the business spotlights can be found in Paradisechamber.com’s online business directory

This week, we’re highlighting Poptastic. Poptastic is a new Ridge balloon and gift business with the motto: “In a crazy world, why not sparkle and pop.” Poptastic will stuff balloons with confetti or gifts, and design vibrant color-themed balloon arches for sports and other events. Poptastic’s balloon designs for any occasion include business promotions—getting the word out about openings and adding sparkle and pop to business décor. Have a special question you want to ask someone? They make “Pop the Question” boxes for any occasion you can imagine. Items from a stuffed animal to beverage bottles can be enclosed inside a balloon and personalized. Call (530) 413-3983 or visit Poptastic online in Paradisechamber.com’s business directory.

Thinking of opening a business in Paradise? The Town of Paradise offers Business Development meetings for prospective business owners to go over the process of opening a business in Paradise. Call Colette Curtis at (530) 872-6291 x112 or email her at ccurtis@townofparadise.com to schedule an appointment.
