Floodwood
Floodwood is a small city at the meeting of the St. Louis and Floodwood rivers in western St. Louis County, billed as the Catfish Capital with a base of agriculture, recreation, retail, and service businesses serving the river valley and surrounding forest. Its rivers and farmland anchor a quiet rural economy. Media & Technology Group builds bespoke business platforms — custom software, AI automation, managed IT, and marketing — for the Floodwood area's agriculture, recreation, retail, and service businesses, and we serve them remote-first from York County, Pennsylvania — distance is no barrier, and we add on-site time when a project warrants the trip.
Do you work with businesses in Floodwood, Minnesota?
Yes — remote-first from our York County, Pennsylvania base, and being a river city in western St. Louis County is no obstacle: nearly all of our work is done remotely, with on-site visits when a project warrants it. A Floodwood client gets a named contact, a regular maintenance window, and direct access for urgent issues.
Does working remotely mean slower support for a Floodwood business?
No — remote-first is how we work everywhere, and for a rural community like Floodwood it means the same fast response as anywhere, without waiting on someone to drive up.
What would you build for a Floodwood agriculture, recreation, or retail business?
Usually a recordkeeping, booking, customer, scheduling, or billing platform built around how your operation runs — so a Floodwood business works from one system instead of a paper calendar and disconnected apps.
