Celebrating the Heart of Our Communities
May is Small Business Month—a time to shine a light on the incredible local entrepreneurs who help our communities thrive. From the cozy coffee shop on Main Street to the family-run hardware store that’s been around for generations, small businesses are the heartbeat of our hometowns. They bring character, connection, and economic vitality to the places we call home.
At Range, we believe strong communities are built on strong local businesses. That’s why supporting our small towns and the people behind these businesses is more than just a priority—it’s part of who we are.
Why Small Businesses Matter
Small businesses aren’t just places to shop—they’re where we meet friends, build dreams, and make memories. They sponsor the little league teams, host community fundraisers, and greet us by name when we walk through the door. They’re led by our neighbors, our friends, and often, our family members.
In rural and small-town communities like ours, these businesses are even more essential. They keep dollars local, create jobs, and contribute to the unique identity of each town.

A Time to Say “Thank You”
This month—and every month—we celebrate the business owners who roll up their sleeves every day to serve our communities with passion and purpose. At Range, we’re proud to stand beside you, powering your success and cheering on your next chapter.
So next time you grab a coffee, get your hair trimmed, or pick up a handmade gift—take a moment to thank your local business owners. And if you’re one of them, know that we see you, we appreciate you, and we’re here to help you thrive.
Happy Small Business Month—from your neighbors at Range.
