Shreveport, La. – At a recent Business Exchange Breakfast hosted by KTBS, Twin City Appliance showcased its long‑standing commitment to the ArkLaTex region. The company, which has been operating for over 40 years, provides appliance repair and installation services to homeowners throughout Shreveport, Bossier City, and nearby towns.
Family‑run business rooted in community values
Founder‑operator Felicia Cadrette explained that Twin City Appliance began as a modest repair shop and has grown into a trusted local brand. “We’ve been providing top‑quality appliance repair and installation services to homeowners in Shreveport, Bossier City, and surrounding areas for over 40 years,” she said. “Whether your refrigerator needs repairs or your oven isn’t working, our team of factory‑trained technicians is ready to help.”
The company emphasizes hiring locally trained technicians, many of whom are long‑time residents of the area. This approach not only ensures quick response times but also supports local employment, aligning with the community’s focus on traditional families and individual liberty through honest, hard‑working entrepreneurship.
Impact on the local economy
By maintaining a steady flow of service calls and installations, Twin City Appliance contributes to the regional economy in several ways. The business purchases parts and supplies from other local vendors, circulates wages within the community, and offers apprenticeship opportunities for young adults seeking skilled trades careers.
Local officials at the breakfast highlighted the importance of such small businesses in sustaining economic resilience, especially in a market where large national chains often dominate. “Businesses like Twin City Appliance keep money in our neighborhoods and provide essential services that families rely on every day,” said a Shreveport Chamber of Commerce representative.
Looking ahead
Looking forward, Twin City Appliance plans to expand its service fleet and invest in newer diagnostic equipment to improve efficiency. Cadrette also mentioned a forthcoming community outreach program aimed at educating homeowners on energy‑saving appliance use, reinforcing the company’s commitment to stewardship and responsible consumption.
For residents interested in learning more or scheduling service, Twin City Appliance maintains an active online presence where customers can request quotes, view service options, and read testimonials from satisfied clients.
The Business Exchange Breakfast provided a platform for Twin City Appliance to connect with other local entrepreneurs, share best practices, and reaffirm its role as a pillar of the Shreveport‑Bossier City business community.
