Niche companies fuel Bozeman, Montana boom
| January 28, 2008 |  View for printing |
When West Paw Design http://www.westpawdesign.com/ moved to Montana from Colorado in the mid-90s, it came in the trunk of the owner's car — a box of fabric and a sewing machine.
Spencer Williams, president of the company which manufactures pet toys and beds, bought the business and moved it from Livingston to Bozeman in 1998. "When I bought it, it was a very small company," Williams said.
