What's moving and shaking in the business community

While Cloquet has seen its share of new buildings and businesses enter the local market since the new year started - think Members Cooperative Credit Union and Aldi grocery store - the changes don't end there. Other local businesses have remodeled, changed location or names, and at least two new businesses have popped up at existing properties. Pine Knot News intern Caleb Swanson hit the streets to find out what's moving and shaking in the business world.
