More than 95 percent of the world’s population and two-thirds of the global purchasing power lies outside of America’s borders, yet less than 1 percent of the 30 million businesses in the United States export. Ohio is the ninth-largest exporting state in the United States, consistently ranking as one of the top 10 exporting states in the nation. This is something that, as the Director of the Export Assistance Network, I am very proud of and hope to continue to see Ohio stay within that top 10.

By Tim Schneider, Toledo Regional Chamber of Commerce
At its regular meeting on Tuesday, May 5 at 4:00 p.m., Toledo City Council is expected to vote on Ordinance 159-20 which would approve a Community Reinvestment Area property tax exemption for Olympic Real Estate Group, LLC for remodeling of a building at 5355 Southwyck Boulevard for a new accounting office. The exemption would be 100 percent for 12 years for taxes that would otherwise be generated due to the increase in the assessed valuation. The estimated investment cost of the project is $519,582. The city sold the property to the company in 2018 which redeveloped it in order to consolidate operations for its sister businesses Financial Express and Payroll Express LLC. Toledo Public Schools has agreed to a compensation agreement in lieu of expected tax revenue.
