Sterling retailers met July 16 to compare foot traffic, staffing and parking pressures as downtown merchants brace for a busy summer.
Retail business owners in Sterling met July 16 to compare the pressures shaping storefront sales, from foot traffic shifts and parking concerns to staffing shortages and customer communication. The Logan County Chamber of Commerce scheduled the gathering to discuss topics affecting merchants and to plan activities that promote their businesses.
All business owners or representatives were welcome, and Nancy was listed as the contact at 970-526-6901 for anyone seeking more information. The calendar also showed a separate Downtown Sterling Meeting on the same day.
Sterling is Logan County’s county seat, largest city and main shopping stop for much of northeast Colorado and southwest Nebraska. It is the regional shopping hub for the area and has the largest population of any community in Colorado east of Pueblo. Sterling also sits on Interstate 76, a location that helps draw shoppers passing through the county and coming in from the surrounding region.
City material puts Sterling’s population at about 14,777 for communities east of Pueblo. World Population Review estimates the city’s 2026 population at 12,964, down from 13,419 in the 2020 census. Logan County’s 2020 census population was 21,528. Sterling Economic Development says the city serves a market of more than 70,000 people within a 45-minute drive.
The Chamber serves the greater Sterling area and works to support, promote and guide the business and civic communities of Logan County. A similar retail-business listing on May 21 showed the format was already in use earlier this year.
