"Flying M Coffee was founded in downtown Boise and loved the vital mix of independent businesses that only downtowns can create. We felt that Nampa was poised for its own urban renewal and were encouraged by the steps the city had taken to assist private businesses to consider the historic core. Since opening in 2006, our coffee garage has become a community gathering place thanks to the support of the great Nampa customers"
~ Kevin and Lisa Myers, Owners, Flying M Coffeegarage
~ Tommy Ahlquist, COO Gardner Company
"We are looking forward to being a part of the downtown community. A walkable downtown. A healthy downtown. If you haven't been to downtown Nampa lately, we encourage you to not only visit our store, but make a day out of it. Have coffee or juice, shop, meet a friend for lunch or sit outside and unwind after a long day. Downtown Nampa is making its move to greatness and we are so excited to be part of the revitalization"
~ Kris & Allison Wear, Owners, World of Nutrition
“Our company has completed a lot of projects in different towns and states around the West and we appreciate the very proactive approach the City took to help Mother Earth Brew Co. expand into Nampa”
~ Mike Fery, CEO/Chairman, Rocky Mountain Companies
"Why Nampa? Why not Boise? Oregon was one of first choices. There's an RV sector up there and a lot of workforce, but after a couple trips, it just didn't seem to fit. But once we got here our eyes kind of lit up. Your people were generous and gracious and that's always a good feeling when your going somewhere" ~ Chris Hermon, President of Heartland Recreational Vehicles
