The Business Beat is your weekly roundup of what’s new in the community

The Millbrook Mercantile is a recent addition to Millbrook’s downtown, and like everyone has had to adjust products and services. And while that can be tough for a brand-new business, owners Bernadette and Lance have rolled with the punches and continue to build their brand.

You’ll find food, clothing, jewelry, soaps, lots of gift ideas and wonderful daily surprises, everything from tiramisu to charcuteri­e boards.

Stop in to 28 King St. E. or check them out at Millbrookm­ercantile.com or on Facebook.
