The City of Alta was contacted by Tristan Pugi, who is a student from Estonia, attending the TTK University of Applied Sciences, and is working his way through college. Tristan wanted to let the citizens of Alta know that he will be in town doing door-to-door sales, helping families with education. When Tristan is going door to door, he asks that if you are simply not interested in his products, just let him know, and he will bid you a good day and move on. 📚

Tristan has obtained a peddlar's permit from the City. The car he is driving is a gray Hyundai Tucson, plate SDN 958 and it will display ‘Southwestern Advantage’ logos. 🚗
