A "good news" story that was also good for business in 2019: Irina Erickson, an inmate at the Women’s Re-Entry Center in Windham, works at David’s 388 in South Portland through an apprenticeship program of HospitalityMaine and the state Department of Corrections.
For business, 2019 has been a mix of good and bad. With the approach of the new year, Mainebiz has taken a look at 10 of 2019’s most “positive” stories — ones that carry an encouraging message about Maine’s economy and companies.
Some of these articles are taken from “The Week in Review” section of each Friday’s Mainebiz Daily Report. Others are simply favorites of the editorial team. On Monday, we’ll present 10 of the year’s most “negative” stories.
These reports may not have made the biggest headlines, but for one reason or another, caught our eye. Perhaps they’ll catch yours too.
