Community Business and Development Centre

The Parry Sound Area Community Business & Development Centre (CB & DC) is a federally supported not-for-profit Community Futures Development Corporation, governed by volunteers in partnership with FedNor. The services provided by the CB&DC exist to promote economic growth and community development of the Parry Sound region.

The centre focuses on job creation by community strategic planning and providing funding and advisory services to area businesses.
