Marshall County as a whole had 1,108 employer establishments in 2023 and another 3,155 nonemployer businesses, the one-person shops and independent contractors that often have no website at all. Compared with the U.S. as a whole, Marshall County leans toward wood products manufacturers (16 establishments, about nine times the national share). In that business, builders and dealers buy by spec, and the website should show products and species, sizes, delivery area and a quote request form. Metal fabrication shops are also overrepresented (30, 4.3 times the national share). The jobs Bourbon residents hold are mostly in manufacturing (34.9%) and arts, entertainment, recreation, lodging and food service (10.1%).
