The Beachwood Chamber of Commerce is uniting local businesses to strengthen and grow the city’s economy.
BY LARA BUSOLD
In Beachwood, a thriving economy isn’t accidental; it’s coordinated. And much of that coordination happens through the strong, intentional partnership between the Beachwood Chamber of Commerce and the City of Beachwood.
“The Chamber really works as a connector,” says Beachwood Chamber Executive Director David Lapierre. “Our job is to bring together local businesses of all sizes to build relationships, share ideas and collaborate in ways that strengthen the city’s economy.”
Through networking events, seminars and targeted promotions, the Chamber’s support has been vital. In 2025, 71 new companies joined.

By hosting an average of two to three events per month, including the popular “Women of the Beachwood Chamber Coffee Hour,” which features guest speakers on topics such as finance, HR and banking, the Chamber creates consistent opportunities for businesses to learn and grow.
Recently, a key focus has been the creation of a Retail Committee. About a year ago, Chamber leadership recognized that retailers were underrepresented in membership. So, they reached out to businesses in Beachwood Place and at the Beachwood Collective, a destination retail plaza located on Richmond Road near the Chagrin

Boulevard exit, to foster deeper engagement.
“Retail is a tough business,” Lapierre says. “Anything we can do to create awareness and exposure helps them grow.”
Coordinated advertising, weekly email spotlights for new members and collaborative marketing efforts have all contributed to the success of the Chamber’s newest endeavor.
City leaders have noticed the impact, too. Catherine Bieterman, Beachwood’s economic development director, believes the Chamber is “the cornerstone of our strong business community, ensuring we remain a vibrant destination to shop, work and invest for years to come.”










Destination
Beachwood is where style, flavor and community converge. From luxury, sought-after retail anchors and curated boutiques to chef-driven dining, next-level fitness and restorative self-care, this is a city designed for discovery — and for gathering together.
Known for luxury brands, Beachwood Place has always been more than a shopping destination. It’s where memories are made.
For generations, it’s been the place for first job-interview outfits, holiday errands, last-minute gifts and the simple ritual of “meeting at the mall.” Now, the iconic center is stepping into its next chapter with a new management and leasing team at the helm: Trademark Property Co.
“Beachwood Place is one of those rare properties that already means something deeply to its
community,” says Trademark President and COO Kevin Kessinger, a Northeast Ohio native who spent many weekend days growing up at Beachwood Place.
Thoughtful retail positioning will include intentional placemaking and retail adjacencies that align with the mall’s anchors — Nordstrom and Dillard’s — and inviting additional sought-after brands into the fold that complement longtime tenants such as Coach, Aveda, Sephora, TUMI, Zara, H&M and others.
“Beachwood Place is an icon among the Cleveland market’s retail offerings, with a nearly 50year history as a top shopping destination in the community,” Kessinger adds.
Consumer insight overwhelmingly points to Beachwood Place’s legacy as a “place to be” and gathering hub, and this input will help drive plans. The early focus is on reengaging anchors and key tenants, exploring new food and beverage concepts and introducing exciting
programming. Trademark has partnered with local consultant Maria Macali of Fleurish Strategy & Marketing, who will advise on activation adjustments and outreach.
Trademark is also exploring ways to create a bridge between indoor retail and outdoor community space, while embracing what makes an enclosed center work in Northeast Ohio’s cold weather months.
Mayor Justin Berns acknowledges the role of Beachwood Place as a meaningful community hub for work and play. “It’s more than a shopping destination,” he says. “It’s also an environment for professionals on the go, providing options to connect to the energy of the community.”
Economic Development Director Catherine Bieterman agrees, pointing to Beachwood Place as an experience that offers “productivity and pause” for the business community and guests.

Beachwood Place will carry on its tradition as Northeast Ohio’s premier fashion destination for style, dining and everyday favorites. A purposeful evolution will ensure its relevance for generations to come.
Brent Willis, general manager at Beachwood Place, says, “Beachwood Place has a strong foundation and a clear opportunity to evolve into a more experience-driven destination that reflects today’s customer. Our focus is on elevating the environment, strengthening the retail and dining mix and creating a place where the community wants to spend time. We’re actively identifying targeted opportunities across the property to enhance the experience and bring new energy to the center.”
“There’s meaningful social gathering that takes place here,” she says. “Meeting a friend to browse boutiques or explore new arrivals creates space for real conversation — uninterrupted, faceto-face connection that strengthens relationships.”

If you thought your kid would never swallow squid (ika) or gobble up a half-dozen tuna rolls, Funshi tune and on a roll with fun for all. The robots deliver — for real. It’s a revolving sushi, ramen, boba bistro that’s family friendly and built around a conveyor-belt sys tem where small plates glide past your table. Grab and try.
“Kids feel excitement, parents feel relaxed and everyone feels welcome,” says Co-founder Christine Xiao of the woman-owned business. AI-driven robots send trays to tables. Server staff members follow up with hospitality and then some.
Xiao explains, “Funshi is sushi and fun. That’s what we have!”
The fresh-casual spot also offers ingredients that were received within hours of serving. Boba is made with premium tea and fresh fruit. And more kids love sushi. “It’s not processed — it’s straight from the ocean, really healthy food, and all ages love it,” says Xiao.

Two decades of serving up scoops and smiles in Beachwood, Mitchell’s Ice Cream Cofounder Pete Mitchell recalls times when he and his brother, Mike, regularly visited a Beachwood bookstore and local restaurants with their parents.
“There are school events and all kinds of community activities that go well with going out for ice cream and gathering with friends and family,” says Mitchell, whose Beachwood customers remember moments with ice cream on top: birthdays, after games and concerts, with grandparents, as first dates and just because.
“We’re so proud to be part of the fabric of the community and being part of bringing people together in Beachwood,” he says. Beachwood faves? Caramel Fudge Brownie, Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup, Cookies ‘n’ Cream and Wildberry Crumble. “While these are popular, many people are very passionate about their favorite,” adds Mitchell, naming his: Lemon White Chocolate Cookie, a seasonal offering.

Check any splurge guilt at the door. Cleveland Consignment Shoppe makes all this possible as a women’s fashion upcycling cornerstone. Brands like Chanel, Burberry, Gucci and Louis Vuitton live here.
Steering the style helm is Gianna Gaspar, who studied fashion design and construction at the Art Institute of Chicago.
“We focus on making high-end designer items accessible,” she says of lightly or never-used inventory that generally retails for double the price you’ll find in the shop.
Stylists steer guests toward one-off finds and help pair pieces for special occasions or everyday. Gaspar calls out a personal favorite find: embroidered Dior heels.
Importantly, she adds, “We are reducing waste and giving items a second home.”

Spelunking for all things home?
The all-encompassing selection at Spaces Consignment Showroom spans the ages. Its inventory consumes 26,000 square feet of showroom space — slightly over a half-acre and not quite the size of the stretch from touchdown to center field. Floor to ceiling, visitors find wins and “are shocked when they see the space,” says Alex Sweeney, third generation owner along with his family. (Sweeney’s grandmother started the shop.)
Finds span from furniture to lighting, art, home decor and rugs. Add Spaces’ estate consignment liquidation services, along with moving (and removing), packing and staging.
Sweeney stresses: Items at Spaces are “the real deal” unlike pre-fab pieces that may carry ap-


pealing price tags but lack style, grace and staying power. After more than 50 years in business and recent revamping, the family-owned treasure trove is a go-to for longtime clients, and first-timers wonder, “What took me so long?”

CycleBar is celebrating 10 years in Beachwood. The experience is equal parts coach, DJ, friend and that mentor who’s going to push you one step beyond.
Joe Purton opened this CycleBar, the first in Northeast Ohio, because of the community. The CPA and finance professional who worked as a health care controller for over 30 years had always turned to cycle studios as an energizer, breather and place to gather.
All this plus giving back through CycleGives is why classes grow, relationships build and
members (and guests) find “their place” here. “We opened our doors with the goal of building something meaningful for this community,” Purton says. “What we’ve built is far more than a fitness studio. It’s a place where people challenge themselves, support one another and keep showing up.”
Purton and team are setting the tone for the next decade with throwback themed rides, rider milestone recognition, community celebrations and more.

Performance , primary care and orthopedic specialists see patients in offices alongside the volleyball and basketball courts, turf field and weight room. Plus, X-ray and physical therapy services are also offered through UH.
T3 offers programs for ages “6 to 106,” says Collin Taylor, training director overseeing operations for training that includes youth, adults, sports special skills, and small and big group sessions.
“Everything we do is about health, strength and performance,” Taylor says, emphasizing the symbiotic relationship with UH sports medicine and inspiring facility with three stories of windows, leading-edge equipment and vetted trainers who are committed.
“Coaches know your sports schedule, your birthday and your dog’s name, and the level of individualism we have here leads to building relationships and consistency to come in, train hard and work toward goals,” he says.

Resort meets goal-centered fitness combined with a cafe, spa, children’s programming and flexible workspace. Add indoor and


outdoor pools and wrap-around training. Life Time Beachwood is comprehensive and even “much more than the workouts you do or the food you eat,” says Michael Thorsten, general manager.
Events range from special occasion offerings like luaus and fall festivals to regular Parents Night Outs on Saturday evenings or Sunday afternoon days out. Drop the kids; leave (or stay at) the club.
“We think about this as a ‘third base,’” says Thorsten. “You have home, work and Life Time Beachwood, where you’ll find a social network, leisure, fitness and enjoyment.”

At CORUS45, a rockin’ combo of strength, endurance, cardio, balance and flexibility begins with slow moves on a spring-based machine. Cue up a “killer fast playlist,” curated by Founder Hillary Zashin. What happens next is up to you.
While traveling during a career as a prosecutor, Zashin discovered this high-intensity pilates workout. She brought her version to Beachwood and now Ohio City. “I wanted a full-body workout where you were one and done,” she says.
While low impact, Zashin says the 45-minute classes that feel every bit as personal as a one-on-one “hit all those muscles.” Moves are named after songs, such as “Stairway to Heaven,” with the studio’s name a nod to Cleveland’s rock-and-roll roots (CORUS) and throwback 45 records. corus45.com | 216-801-2673

A legacy of full-service salon and spa services and a reputation for thoughtful pampering is what guests appreciate at Dino Palmieri Salon & Spa, where an approach of “always evolving” introduces fresh experiences, modern looks and an everchanging menu of self-care.
Founder Dino Palmieri opened his first Northeast Ohio salon in 1984. Originally from Campobasso, Italy, he honed his craft in London first. Once here, he gradually built a recognized salon and spa group brand.
Every bit of the story and service is personal.
In Beachwood at La Place, concierge treatment provides a sanctuary for timeless and relevant hair, nails, facials, massage — the list goes on. Palmieri says that just as clients are loyal to the services they expect, they’re delighted by what’s new. “We’re constantly reinvent-
ing ourselves, staying ahead of the trends,” says Palmieri, proud of the recognition his team earns. “Client service is everything.”

Get to know local entrepreneurs who are leaving their mark on the city’s retail and self-care scene. BY JILL SELL
Beachwood has an amazing collection of high-end boutiques and salons to ensure you always look your best. From trendy manicures to handbags that express the real you and designer clothing for how you live today — you’ll find them all in the city. Here, we get to know the people behind four of those unique businesses.

From the moment you walk into Statement Nail & Wax Lounge, which opened in September, it’s apparent this is no ordinary salon.
Co-owners and founders Andrea and Robert Kimmel wanted a spacious footprint to allow their clients privacy during their services and also room for a lounge and bar area. That generous space also hosts bridal showers, bachelorette parties and birthday celebrations.
The salon’s focus is manicures and pedicures. Robert Kimmel says there is a big demand for artistic work and “a number of the nail techs are highly skilled artists who are also really personable, which attracts repeat customers.”
Other services include whole-body waxing, massage and permanent jewelry opportunities.
The couple were former founders and owners of Sweet Kiddles, a group of seven daycare centers, one of which was located in Beachwood. They are happy to remain in the city, citing its many advantages for small businesses owners.
The Kimmels also are lovers of all kinds of music. Robert is a member of Brothers Keeper Classic Rock Band and the Rocky River United Methodist Church band. He plays “just about anything with strings,” he says, and Andrea performs on keys. The couple have a junior and senior in high school and a shih tzu named Sebastian.

“Everybody gets a ‘wow’ factor when they come into the store. There is a big curiosity about what we do,” says Tianna Blackmon, founder and owner of In My Bag Collection, a luxury handbag boutique that opened in Beachwood in November. Part of that surprise is the store’s bold appearance. Blackmon confesses a huge interest in (and talent for) interior design, which shows up in her red, black and white store.
Blackmon moved her business, founded in 2018, from Tower City Center in Cleveland. In the early days, she hand painted handbags but became too busy to keep up with the time-consuming practice. Now she offers 100% genuine leather bags with double strap handles and a shoulder strap, plus gold or silver hardware. The bags, made in Italy, also feature a lock and key and certificate of authentication. Inventory also includes luggage, briefcases, backpacks, dog carriers and golf bags. Blackmon’s bestsellers are part of the “Ain’t No Birkin” luxury statement bags.
“Sometimes people come in and want to select a particular color bag to match an outfit, and of course we can help with that,” says Blackmon. “But for most people, and if it’s their first bag, I tell them to go with a black or red bag. With a black bag, you can get a feeling of the quality, and you can always add to your collection later.”

Tanya Manning-Grant spent 30 years in the corporate world, traveling extensively. That experience helped strengthen her entrepreneurial skills, sense of fashion and awareness of women’s causes. Those qualities came together in 2019 when she opened DRESSCODE Boutique and Ashton’s Corner Kids Clothing Boutique (a children’s boutique named after her 8-yearold grandson). She moved to a larger location in Beachwood in 2024 and added DCB Spaces, an event space with capacity for 100 guests.
DRESSCODE Boutique caters to women 27 to 55 years old, with a focus on “the modern, everyday woman who wants comfy, chic style for the office and for fun.” The event space next door hosts bridal showers, birthday parties, corporate events and more. It’s also the location of Manning-Grant’s Breast Cancer Awareness events in October. “I lost my mom to breast cancer, and most of that month we dedicate to raising awareness about early detection and fighting breast cancer,” says Manning-Grant.
She also collects donations of books, puzzles and games to help with childhood literacy. And if you see a little boy sweeping the store, passing out candy or helping select some inventory — that’s Ashton “learning the value of an education and hard work,” according to his grandmother. 3365 Richmond Road, Suite 238 | 216-3091116 | dresscodebytmg.com | ashtonscorner.com | dcbspace.net



Always dreamed of going to Paris? Or maybe you had a great time in New Orleans and want to wear that memory close to you. Or perhaps you are a proud Clevelander. The Anne Cate brand will let you express those feelings.
Anne Johnson is the founder and CEO of Anne Cate, an accessory brand with manufacturing and offices in Beachwood. Best known for its Skyline Collection (especially purses and pillows) with silhouette depictions of more than 100 specific locations, Anne Cate items are sold online and in 200 stores across the country.
Best-selling big city Skylines feature Cleveland, New York and Paris. And while
not all communities have an actual skyline, Johnson, who designs all her creations, makes sure iconic landmarks or buildings represent places like Medina and Hudson.
Anne Cate began when Johnson was a student in Kent State University’s fashion merchandising program. Armed with a single sewing machine in her dorm room, unbridled ambition and the help of her advisors, she began making skyline pillows for her room — and to sell. Her business is now 10 years old and offers both heavy-duty canvas and vegan leather (vinyl) purses.
Johnson opened her Beachwood facility in January 2025, taking full advantage of the city’s support of local businesses and opportunities for women entrepreneurs.
“Being in Beachwood has been invaluable,” she says. “And we especially want people to know our products are all made here in America.”
Outside of work, Johnson and her husband love being outdoors, especially hiking in the Cleveland Metroparks. Growing up in Mentor, she also still enjoys spending time on the shores of Lake Erie.

On a regular weekday morning at the Beachwood Community Center, coffee is brewing, tables are filling and connections are being made. It might seem ordinary, but for Beachwood’s senior residents, this familiar scene represents a hometown intentionally creating ways to help them live independently, stay connected and continue thriving.
“We focus on removing everyday barriers so that our seniors can continue to live independently and know there’s support within
reach,” says Jayme Jirousek, Beachwood’s senior adult manager.
This philosophy shows up in both big-picture planning and day-to-day services. One of the most impactful is Beachwood’s free senior van transportation program, which helps residents get to medical appointments, grocery stores, banks and social activities. For seniors who use wheelchairs, an accessible van ensures mobility doesn’t stand in the way of their independence.
The Public Works Rubbish and Recycling Assistance Program is another simple, but








impactful resource for seniors with mobility challenges, providing them with help getting their trash and recycling bins to and from the curb.
“It’s something small, but it allows seniors to stay in their homes longer,” Jirousek says. “They don’t have to worry about something that could otherwise become a major obstacle.”
Beyond practical support, Beachwood places a strong emphasis on connection.
“Meet & Eat,” educational programs, card games, bingo and social gatherings draw seniors into the community center each month.
“Connection is key,” says Jirousek. “We want people to come in, make friends, feel supported and know they’re an integral part of our community.”
This sense of connection is also fueling excitement around the return of overnight senior trips, a popular program paused during the pandemic.
“Seniors said they wanted to travel again,” Jirousek says. “They missed that experience of getting out, seeing new places, and doing it together.”
Using survey feedback from senior residents, the city relaunched the program, with a visit planned to Buffalo and Niagara-on-theLake this summer.

“They love that all they have to do is get on the bus and follow the itinerary,” Jirousek says. “Everything is planned. They don’t have to worry about logistics. It makes travel accessible again.”
Jirousek notes that these overnight trips offer something deeper, too. “Some participants are widows or widowers. On these trips, they’re able to build bonds and friendships. They spend more time together, and those connections last.”
After decades of commitment to serving senior residents, Beachwood plans to continue listening, adapting and accommodating with intention.
“Our Community Services Department plays a critical role in ensuring our senior programming is thoughtful, meaningful and truly enhances quality of life,” says Mayor Justin Berns. “We are committed to creating opportunities that keep our seniors engaged, supported and connected in ways that matter. Our senior residents are a vital part of what makes Beachwood special. I’m most proud of how we serve them by listening, responding and designing programs that reflect their interests and energy. We want them to know this city is here for them — today and in the years ahead.”




From nationally recognized retailers to locally loved restaurants, Beachwood brings together the brands you love and the experiences you didn’t know you needed — all in one place.
