Existing Business and Retention
The Bartlett Association of Retailers is a local non-profit organization that was recently formed by local merchants to promote growth and prosperity for the Bartlett retail industry. The mission of the Bartlett Association of Retailers is to educate the citizens of Bartlett on the importance of shopping locally and to promote the individual retailers within the city.
The goal is to increase retail sales in Bartlett and provide job security for local retail workers. Secondly, we want residents of Bartlett to know how their decisions about where to buy gas, groceries or a new appliance can actually impact their city services and indirectly their property taxes.
