Western Colorado Specialty Pharmacy

What’s a person to do if premanufactured pharmaceuticals just don’t work for you or your pet? That’s what many people with specific allergies (fillers, dyes, etc), finicky kids/pets, or folks in need of a specific non-traditional dosage of a medication were left to ask until now in Grand Junction, CO. Karen Floyd has been a pharmacist for over 30 years and has seen an increasing need for the services compounding pharmacies provide. In 2006 alone, over 30 million compounded prescriptions were dispensed not including injectables. With only one pharmacy that can provide compounded pharmaceuticals in Grand Junction, and the next nearest one over 150 miles away, Karen Floyd decided to open Western Colorado Specialty Pharmacy. The location is currently under construction and Karen hopes to have the doors open by March 1, 2009.

Karen has been a long term client of the SBDC having graduated from Leading Edge, taken How to Start a Business, participated in many free counseling sessions, and worked with the Revolving Loan Fund housed at the Business Incubator Center.

CrossFit Juke Joint

CrossFit Juke Joint (CFJJ) is a box, not a gym. Unlike gyms, CrossFit facilities (boxes) do not house treadmills or 20 weight machines. They resemble a box with four walls that contain weights, ropes, and bars. However, perhaps the most important piece of equipment a box can carry is a sense of community – something CFJJ owner Sung Hong cares deeply about. An accomplished martial artist, Hong was first introduced to the CrossFit lifestyle while

Press Colorado Juice Company

Stephanie Witwer’s dream of creating high quality, all-organic cold press juices to help individuals live healthier, came to life at an event early in 2015. She met Jon Maraschin, Executive Director of the Business Incubator Center, who encouraged her to attend the SBDC’s Leading Edge course in February. Stephanie did and was inspired to launch her business from the Business Incubator Center’s Commercial Kitchen a few months later. After moving into the Business Incubator Center,
