Christmas Shopping Season Present may be ending today, but City of Mesa officials are turning their attention to Christmas Shopping Season Future – and all the other days around it.
Officials have hired a national retail recruitment firm to help the city grow its shopping, dining, lodging and entertainment amenities and compete with neighboring communities for sales tax dollars.
They announced this month the selection of Tupelo, Mississippi-based The Retail Coach to help develop a strategy to attract big-name brands, following a Request for Proposals they issued in August.
