TOPEKA – Offenders are helping a Kansas business develop by taking advantage of a federal certification that allows inmates to work with private enterprises through Kansas Correctional Industries (KCI).

Thirsty Coconut, a family-owned producer of healthy drinks based in Louisburg, needed assistance with their beverage dispensing machines, and had nowhere in Kansas to turn to for help, until they found KCI.

    This is very interesting information and such cooperation gives excellent results. I also want to note that today for small businesses with low cash turnover, there is a unique opportunity in the UK to use a digital platform for online accounting on the Osome company's website https://osome.com/uk/bookkeeping-services/.
