Selling a socket set in Chatham-Kent
Chatham-Kent is a single municipality covering a large stretch of the most productive farmland in the country, with a number of small towns inside it rather than one city. Agriculture and food processing are the economy, and the flat land here is drained farmland rather than natural prairie.
Farm equipment turns over on a working life rather than a fashion cycle, and the seasonal agricultural workforce sets up and clears households on the harvest calendar.
Agree which town before anything else — this is a municipality the size of a county and the distances inside it are real. Trucks and trailers are ordinary, so moving something large is rarely the problem.
Chatham-Kent, in Ontario, has around 105,000 people, which means a small local market, which makes the nearby towns part of your audience rather than an afterthought. Toronto, Ottawa and Brampton are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
