Havasu Marine Ventures Founder Buys Second Marina

The announcement is the latest sign of momentum for Lake Havasu City's business community, which has drawn growing attention from investors across the Southwest.

"We've put a lot of work into getting this right, and people are already noticing the difference," said Brian Silva, founder in Lake Havasu City.

The company now employs roughly 46 people across its Arizona operations, with plans to keep hiring if growth holds through next year. Leadership says Lake Havasu City's talent pipeline was a deciding factor in choosing to expand locally rather than out of state.

"This is exactly the kind of progress our community deserves." — Brian Silva

Company leadership says an update on hiring and expansion plans is expected before the end of the year.
