Belknap EDC and Wayfarer Coffee Roasters Partner To Support Wayfarer’s Continued Growth

Wayfarer Coffee Roasters owners Karen Bassett, Ben Bullerwell, and Reuben Bassett recently worked with the Belknap Economic Development Council (Belknap EDC) in planning for Wayfarer's continued growth in the Lakes Region.

“We feel fortunate to have the support of the programs Belknap EDC offers as a resource including its financing programs,” states Karen Bassett, owner of Wayfarer. “They patiently answered all my questions throughout the entire process, demonstrating their understanding of the needs and challenges of running a small business such as ours. I appreciated that they were also willing to connect me to other resources they offer that could also support the growth of our business."

“It’s been such a pleasure to work with the Wayfarer team as they continue to grow and expand their operation. We look forward to continuing to work with them and other Laconia Main Street businesses,” stated Justin Slattery, Belknap EDC Executive Director.
