ZIP code 68359, which covers Cordova and the area around it, had 48 business establishments with employees in 2023. A few examples from the same count:

• Remodeling contractors, 3 in the count. What works online: before-and-after photos of finished kitchens and baths, the neighborhoods you work in and a quote request form.

County-wide, Seward County counts 485 businesses with employees and 1,496 self-employed or nonemployer businesses (2023). One sector stands out in Seward County: nondurable goods wholesalers, with 19 establishments and 2.7 times the national share. What works for them online: the catalog, delivery routes and how to become a customer. Most of these businesses are small, and the website does the job a front desk would do in a bigger company.
