Small-business stories wanted

Advertiser Staff

Since the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, small businesses of all kinds have been struggling in Hawai'i.

Some have trimmed their hours of operation, some have laid off employees, some have shifted their focus to attract more customers.

The Advertiser would like to chronicle these struggles. If you're a small-business owner whose company has been affected by the sudden change in Hawai'i's economy, we would like to talk to you.

Please call 525-8063 or e-mail us at business@honoluluadvertiser.com. Please give your name, the name and location of your company, your telephone number or e-mail address, and a brief description of your business and the challenges you have faced since Sept. 11.
