Want to see a real old country store? Check out Tarkington’s General Store down on Hassell’s Creek in Hickman County. Wade the creek, have some food, and listen to some music. You may check them out on the web at http://tarkingtongeneralstore.com/ .
… it’s probably here somewhere
Daryl Phillips, CEcD
I work as an economic developer. At the moment, I serve as Executive Director of Hickman County Economic & Community Development Association, Inc. Working in a one person shop, I do community marketing, strategic planning, industrial recruitment, business retention & expansion, retail recruitment, tourism development and manage the non-profit corporation of the public/private partnership.
I am a member of International Economic Development Council, Southern Economic Development Council, Tennessee Economic Development Council and International Council of Shopping Centers.
I have held the designation of Certified Economic Developer (CEcD) from International Economic Development Council (IEDC) since 2008 and I have earned a Master of Business Administration from Tennessee Technological University.
