    Vermont's economy relies on tourism tied to its mountains and rural landscape, small-scale manufacturing, agriculture, and healthcare and education institutions concentrated in Burlington. The state's economic base is smaller and more rural than most of the Northeast.

    • Higher education

    • Small-scale manufacturing

    Stokley Capital reviews requests involving hospitality assets tied to seasonal tourism and repositioning of commercial and mixed-use property in Burlington and other regional centers.
