Kentwood is the Foyer of Louisiana, we are the first town entering the state along a major highway that leads to one of the largest tourist attractions in the world. Every year thousands of people check in at our welcome center inquiring about what the area has to offer.

At the moment, they are usually sent miles away to other towns. We hope you can change that.

​

So, whether you are establishing a franchise, building a startup or turning a hobby into something official, I want to welcome any new establishment with open arms and provide all of the necessary information and links needed to make it as easy as possible for you to get started. 

​

I hope to see you as the next staple of the Foyer of Louisiana.
