Craft Kafe, a gluten-free bakery cafe with a cult following at two locations in St. Petersburg, is opening its first Tampa location this spring downtown across from the University of Tampa.

Tampa Bay Ranks High for Startups

For entrepreneurs looking to launch a startup, Tampa Bay presents as a formidable option. In fact, the region is America’s sixth-best city to found a startup, according to a recent study by data analysis firm Real Estate Witch. The Bay area has it all: employment growth, affordable employees, flourishing businesses and more – with no intention of slowing down.
