A new barbershop will be opening in Paulding, OH. Trevor Speice, entrepreneur and owner of Speice’s Barbershop is a recipient of the Small Business Support Loan through the Paulding County Economic Development (PCED) office. This fund was made possible by the Paulding County Area Foundation and was established to help small businesses in Paulding County.
Speice met with the PCED office and shared the need for equipment at his new shop, that will be located at 208 N Williams St in Paulding. PCED was able to offer the Small Business Support Loan opportunity. Speice applied and was accepted as a loan recipient to help get his new business started.
Paulding County Economic Development Office Manager, Kristen Schilt noted, “Having programs in place to offer small businesses makes Paulding County more business-friendly. This program, in conjunction with our marketing support program made possible by OhioMeansJobs, allows Speice and other businesses the opportunity to start, thrive and retain. We are excited for Speice’s Barbershop to open later this year and to have a young Paulding County graduate bring his talents back to the area.”
After graduating from Barberology College of Barbering Arts, Speice’s Barbershop plans to open in December, and will provide haircut and shaving services to men of all ages. You can find Speice’s Barbershop on Instagram at speice.cuts or call Trevor at 419-796-0100 to become a new client.
