New Coffee Shop Is Signal of Ferdinand's Continuing Entrepreneurship Efforts

The DCADC Enterprise Loan Fund made its fifth loan to Boundless Grounds, a coffee shop café located in the Ferdinand Antique Emporium. Ferdinand residents, Ann's family and well wishers were on hand Saturday morning for a ribbon cutting to celebrate the opening of Ferdinand's newest business.

Boundless Grounds is owned and operated by Ann Wahl of Ferdinand, IN. Ann has a tremendous amount of experience in the food service sector. She has leveraged this experience by starting her own business in the Ferdinand Antique Emporium. Boundless Grounds offers a variety of coffee drinks and complementary selection of baked goods and sandwiches.

The Enterprise Loan Funds were used for working capital to help with purchasing necessary supplies and equipment. The DCADC Enterprise Loan Fund Board noted that Boundless Grounds is a great example of a start up taking advantage of growing tourism traffic associated with the continuing expansion of Holiday World and Ferdinand's location along I-64.

We certainly wish Boundless Grounds all the best with their new business.

As noted, this new businesses is located in the Ferdinand Antique Emporium, which is a great example of entrepreneurship in a number of ways. Consider that this former wood working facility is now home to a number of new business ventures ranging from a custom framing company to a dance studio not to mention all the interesting antique vendor spaces. This is clearly a wonderful example of imagination and entrepreneurship.
