(KNZA)--Ground has been broken for a new business, with Prairie Band LLC joining with Prairie Band Potawatomi Nation Tribal Council members for Friday's ceremony.
According to the PBPN website, officials from Gaia Eco, which specializes in the manufacture of biodegradable products, were also in attendance for the groundbreaking, which the tribe says "marks a significant milestone as it will be the first business to be operational at the 150/75 development near Mayetta."
The release says the PBPN's partnership with Gaia Eco "plays a pivotal role in the Nation- economic development efforts while also leading in the development of new ways to create sustainable products with a negative carbon footprint."
An opening date for the new business isn't immediately released.
