Good Businesses to Start

Home Centers

Home Centers aren't as ubiquitous as most other types of businesses in the U.S. Still, across the entire United States, there are more than 5,000 Home Centers. Based on some simple math, it appears that each one of those Home Centers serves about 60,000 citizens on average.

According to national labor statistics, Home Centers will typically employ 100 to 249 employees. So, it's safe to say that Home Centers account for substantial employment of workers across the country.
