The Leesburg Economic Development Commission meeting on August 6, 2025, highlighted significant new business openings in the area, marking a vibrant moment for local commerce.

Melanie Scroggins, during her staff report, announced the successful ribbon-cutting ceremonies for Paris Baguette and Hotel Berg, both of which are now officially open to the public. Paris Baguette celebrated its opening with a festive ribbon-cutting, while Hotel Berg had its ceremony on July 29 and welcomed guests starting August 1.

Additionally, Shutters, another new establishment, recently held a soft opening and began accepting reservations, although it has yet to host a formal ribbon-cutting event.

These developments signal a positive trend in Leesburg's economic landscape, showcasing the town's commitment to fostering new businesses and enhancing community engagement. The commission's focus on supporting local enterprises is expected to continue driving growth and attracting visitors to the area.
