Calling all Retailers!
Take the NYC Retail Survey Today!
The New Business Acceleration Team (NBAT), created through a partnership between Council Speaker Quinn and Mayor Bloomberg in 2010, helps businesses navigate City requirements and open their doors more quickly and easily. NBAT has helped nearly 600 restaurants shave an average of 75 days off the time to open.
