Comptroller: Employment In State’s Small Businesses Increased Faster Than U.S. Pace

Posted onApril 4, 2019April 5, 2019

Employment among New York’s small businesses has increased slightly faster than the national pace, according to a report released today by State Comptroller Thomas P. DiNapoli.
The report, based on the most recent data available from the U.S. Census Bureau, examined the five-year trend from 2011 through 2016.
During that time frame, small business employment rose by 9.2 percent in New York while increasing 8.9 percent across the country. These companies provided more than 4.1 million jobs in the state in 2016, just over half of all private sector jobs in New York. Small businesses provided more than $212 billion in payroll, nearly 40 percent of the total private sector payroll in the state.

Subway has relocated to a newly-constructed building at 146 South Broadway.

By Christine Graf
The Subway restaurant formerly located at 170 South Broadway in Saratoga Springs has relocated to a newly-constructed building at 146 South Broadway.
The property and building are owned by local Subway franchise owner Russ Faden. He leased the previous location for 10 years.
In addition to Subway, the new building has two upstairs apartments.
Faden operates 17 Subway locations between Northway exits 9 and 20. He and his wife, Carrie, purchased their first Subway in downtown Saratoga in 2007. At the time, he was a full-time police officer in the Saratoga Springs Police Department.
“This Subway that came up for sale was literally about 100 feet from the police station. I was working midnights at the time, and I would work and then go over and run the shop during the day,” he said. “That’s how we started with our first one, and that’s kind of where we learned the ropes.”
In the years that followed, they opened numerous locations. Approximately four years ago, Faden made the decision to leave the police department after 12 years of service.
