The businesses that compete for customers in Cuba

Some of the business types in Sumter County, from the 2023 County Business Patterns:

• Child care centers, 12 in the count. What works online: the program, licensing information, the staff and a contact form for parents.
• Quick-service restaurants, 9 in the count. What works online: the menu with prices, hours and the closest cross streets.

Across Sumter County, County Business Patterns counted 204 employer establishments in 2023, and the Nonemployer Statistics add 818 businesses with no payroll, most of them self-employed owners. Compared with the U.S. as a whole, Sumter County leans toward religious, civic and membership organizations (15 establishments, twice the national share). In that business, members and newcomers look for schedules and contacts, and the website should show meeting times, programs, location and how to get involved.

The legal basics for Cuba businesses online

A few rules apply to any Cuba business that sells or advertises online:

• Alabama business privilege licenses are issued at county level; the state Department of Revenue coordinates state and county business privilege licenses, and the county probate office issues them. In Cuba, that means asking Sumter County and the Town of Cuba. Official source
• Alabama’s state sales and use tax rate on general merchandise is 4%, with a reduced 2% rate on food and groceries since September 1, 2025; cities and counties add their own rates. Alabama Department of Revenue
• Selling to customers in other states? Each state sets its own threshold for remote sellers; Alabama’s is $250,000 of retail sales into Alabama in the previous calendar year (Simplified Sellers Use Tax program; flat 8% rate). Official source
