(Kirksville, MO) - The City of Kirksville recognizes National Small Business Week from May 3 to May 9, 2026.

Small businesses are the backbone of our economy and the cornerstones of our nation’s promise. When we support small businesses, jobs are created and local communities thrive.

With Mother’s Day, multiple graduations, and several other holidays approaching, the City encourages residents to shop and think locally. 

If you are interested in starting your own small business, contact Bryce Cardwell, Small Business Counselor with the Missouri Rural Enterprise and Innovation Center, at 660.665.2003. Visit mreic.org to learn more.
