Bredemarket is NOT Candy Street Market
In late 2022 I wrote a Bredemarket blog post entitled “Candy Street Market is coming.” It covered a business on Holt Boulevard in Ontario, California.
I referred to this post a couple of other times, making clear that Bredemarket was NOT Candy Street Market.
Well, at least I thought I did.
Until Bredemarket recently received an email from a janitorial company that included the following:
Hello Candy Street Market,
We’ll be around your area this week.
Happy to drop by and give you a simple cleaning quote should you need it. Does that work?
I didn’t respond.
If the janitorial company stops by Candy Street Market anyway, they’re in for a rude surprise.
Candy Street Market closed a long time ago.
CHECK YOUR MAILING LISTS.
Did I Forget to Mention That I Don’t Live in New York City?
For a moment I’m going to veer away from finger, face, iris, voice, and DNA and veer toward geolocation.
I don’t live in New York City.
Technically I don’t live in the Mojave Desert either.
But Ontario, California is closer, both in geography and in climate, to the High Desert than to the Eastern Seaboard.
I guess California knows how to party by walking around with self promotion signs.
And if my biometric product marketing expertise can help your firm, let’s talk.

That’s Ontario, California.

Update to my July 2 Bredemarket blog post.

And while the Thrifty Ice Cream counter at this store is empty, at least the Thrifty company survives.

More pictures below. Avoid if store closings depress you.

Infrastructure!
Ontario’s Measure Q sales tax increase is funding infrastructure.
““This is a big measure for us,” he continues. “It’s going to bring in anywhere between 65 and 95 million a year in extra funding for our community.” The majority of that is going to be used for capital improvement projects like infrastructure, and so we’re really trying to make sure that our strategy for Measure Q means being transparent in where residents can see the money in their community.””
