The MDT Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) Program encourages and supports the participation of companies owned and controlled by socially and economically disadvantaged individuals in transportation contracts.

Tait Hanson is just like any other teenager.

He dreams of owning a 1971 Chevy Cheyenne 10 Super truck and perhaps a Harley.

But unlike other seniors at Great Falls High School, Hanson is working toward that goal with his own e-commerce business.

"I’m like a normal high schooler except I’m willing to do what others won’t do," he said. "I have a dream that is so strong, it powers me every day."

The 18-year-old started his own e-commerce Web site, Simplicity in Shopping https://tgh.mychoices.biz/Retail/Home.aspx , two months ago. The site sells products ranging from auto parts to clothing and kitchen utensils.

The goal is to sell products as well as encourage others to join the franchise.
