Kief Studio

Software for Mendon's Route 16 firms and home-based businesses

Route 16 corridor

Does Kief Studio work in Mendon? Yes.

Mendon is mostly residential, and its 2023 master plan says commercial and light industrial uses bring in just six percent of property tax revenue. The 262 businesses in town, with 1,855 workers, cluster along Route 16 and Route 140, where a one-mile Highway Business district mixes restaurants, contractors, manufacturing and service firms.

The plan also asks for zoning that supports home occupations, and 43 percent of survey respondents agreed they should be allowed with some restrictions. Kief Studio, in Shrewsbury, builds for that kind of company: the website, the request and scheduling tools and the back office an owner-run business needs, then hosts them on LTFI so nobody in the house has to babysit a server.
