#SinceDay01 celebrates the journey and ambition of small businesses.

Ambition is a common thread that fuels small businesses everywhere and U.S. Bank understands that every ambition deserves a champion. That is why we’re excited to dedicate the month of May as Small Business Month. Throughout the next few weeks, we will be celebrating the ambition of small business owners across the country and how their grit, creativity and innovation have kept their dreams and passions strong, especially when times are tough.

Small businesses are the backbone of our economy, and with today’s business climate, small business owners are facing some unique challenges including hiring and staffing, inflationary pressures and supply chain issues. U.S. Bank is proud of how small businesses continue to persevere and show up every day to do what they love for their customers.  We are also proud of the work and partnership our team members engage in every day to help support 1.1 million small business clients across the company’s banking, payments, and software offerings, as well as our broader efforts to support the communities where U.S. Bank operates.

As part of our celebration of Small Business Month, U.S. Bank is spotlighting three small businesses and telling their stories from inception of their business through current day.

Follow #SinceDay01 across U.S. Bank social channels such as LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook, Twitter to learn more about these small businesses and their grit, hustle and creativity.  Our stories focus on a puzzle maker in Boulder, Colorado, an interior designer in Murray, Kentucky, and a restauranteur and food retailer in Milwaukee:
