BOISE, Idaho - U.S. Senator Jim Risch, senior member and former chairman of the Senate Committee on Small Business and Entrepreneurship, announced the selection of Innovative Electric Services, Inc. in Orofino as the Idaho Small Business of the Month for October 2024. Innovative Electric Services, Inc. will be recognized for its contribution to Clearwater County in the Congressional Record of the U.S. Senate.

“Kelly and Mindy Watkins opened Innovative Electric Services when they experienced a lack of trade services available in rural areas,” said Risch. “More than five years later, the Watkins’ family-owned business continues to provide exceptional support for the people of Clearwater County."

Idaho is consistently ranked one of the best places in the country to do business. Each month, Senator Risch selects an Idaho small business that exemplifies the Idaho values of hard work, entrepreneurial spirit, and exceptional commitment to the community.
