Local businesses explain BGSU's impact

What would Bowling Green be without Bowling Green State University? Would there be any economic ramifications would be the businesses face if the university weren’t here?

To answer to these questions we went to a number of businesses to determine the impact the university has on their establishments.

Five of these businesses were focused on and interviewed: Finders, Beckett’s, Ben Franklin, Pita Pit, and Student Book Exchange (SBX).

These five establishments incorporate different types of business and mindsets on how the university affects them.

Finders Records is a music store at 128 N. Main St.

Beckett’s a restaurant/bar located 146 N. Main St.

Ben Franklin Crafts, a craft store, is at 154 S. Main St.

Pita Pit is strictly a restaurant, is located at 522 E. Wooster St.

SBX sells books and BG merchandise is located two stores down from Pita Pit at 530 E. Wooster St.
