My company had in the past, spent over 650k a year in having our shareholders convention in S.F. I dare say far more then that was spent by our shareholders while in S.F.
Additionally, we would spend over 20k a year with the Boudin Bakery, shipping out gift packages all over the world. (my great grand father was one of their first bakers) We haven’t had a convention in S.F. for three years, and we stopped patronizing all businesses in S.F.
I’m wondering how many other corporations have ceased in doing business with the city?
Was your company a giant or medium sized? I would imagine companies staying away from S. F. would be medium sized thus “below the radar.”
