We Want to Meet Business Owners!

Mountain View has many great small businesses many owned and operated by their original owners.

But how well do you know the people who run the establishments where you shop or receive services? Would you patronize it more if you knew about the owners?

Patch hopes so! We encourage all small business owners to participate in our "Meet the Owner" weekly business feature. Please copy and paste the following questions into an email addressed to mountainview@patch.com, fill in the answers and send the email our way.

Also provide a photo of the business owners or staff, a brief history of the business, its mission statement or philosophy and others information like location, services and hours of operation.

Every week Mountain View Patch will highlight at least one business.
