Marketing for Throggs Neck Businesses

Throggs Neck is a peninsula in the southeast Bronx with a small-town feel: detached houses, waterfront bungalow communities like Silver Beach and Edgewater Park, and SUNY Maritime College at Fort Schuyler near the tip. There is no subway here, so most residents drive, ride express buses into Manhattan or take the NYC Ferry from Ferry Point Park. East Tremont Avenue is the main shopping street, lined with delis, pizzerias, bars, pharmacies and professional offices.

Local merchants on East Tremont Avenue also compete with the shopping centers along the Bruckner and at Bay Plaza, which pull car-based shoppers away from the strip. For a Throggs Neck business, the answer is to be the easy local choice. That means a profile that shows parking options, a website that loads quickly on a phone and a review habit that keeps your name in front of neighbors who still ask each other for recommendations.
