Forney Small Business Initiative
Forney Economic Development is thrilled to launch the Forney Small Business Initiative! This collective effort highlights existing and new small businesses in Forney while connecting them to invaluable resources. We aim to grow and strengthen the Forney small business community through partnerships and programmatic tools.

For the Small Business Series, Forney Economic Development partners with Prairie View A&M Extension's Community and Economic Development Unit, which develops and delivers presentations for many of the sessions.
