AMARILLO, Texas (KAMR/KCIT) — Officials with the city of Amarillo announced Monday that Amarillo Mayor Ginger Nelson will conduct the “Amarillo Talks Business” tour, touting the recent economic accomplishments in the Amarillo area.

According to a news release from the city of Amarillo, Nelson will visit area businesses throughout the next month, speaking with the owners and employees. The tour will be featured on the city’s social media outlets in the next month.

“What is happening in Amarillo right now as far as economic growth is unprecedented,” Nelson said in the release. “There is no better source to discuss Amarillo’s success than those who are helping make it happen – Amarillo businesses. This is what Amarillo Talks Business is all about.”
