Westboro Village is home to nearly 250 businesses — and 40 per cent of them are women-led, nearly double the national average. In a feature published by the Westboro Village BIA in OBJ, entrepreneurs like Amber Stratton (Pure Yoga, Pure Kitchen, Framework), Molly van der Schee (The Village Quire), Katie Valente (Fratelli Westboro), and BIA Chair Kate Laird (Love Your Body Fitness) share how Westboro’s collaborative, community-first culture is what sets the neighbourhood apart. As WVBIA Executive Director Judy Lincoln puts it, “it is remarkable to see how they come together to support each other, learn from each other and help all the businesses grow.”
