KEEP YOUR MONEY LOCAL

For every $100 spent, $68 at a local store stays in your community. But only $43 at a chain store will say in your local economy.

That money helps to fund:

• Community Groups

• Local Infrastructure

• Public Services

CREATE LOCAL JOBS

Local businesses provide 2.6X more jobs than their chain counterparts. Often, chain stores will displace just as many jobs as they end up creating!

With more people working in your community, that means more tax dollars for public services and a more stable place to live!

GO GREEN BY SHOPPING LOCAL

Shrink your carbon footprint by shopping locally. Not only will this save you gas, it will save you time as well! When you shop locally, not only do you spend less time on the road and searching for parking, but so do the goods you buy!

Locally owned businesses buy twice as many local products and services as their chain counterparts. This puts even more money back into the local economy!

IMPROVE YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD

Invest in your community: when you shop small, you’re investing in neighborhood improvement and community development.

Make yourself at home: By supporting local businesses, you’re supporting a network of people working towards the same goal: a lively and healthy place to call home!

FIND SOMETHING UNIQUE

Find something different: Find something different than what you see at the big box stores. Local shops carry a larger variety of items than big box stores because they don't need to fill thousands of locations!

Get the quality you want: Small businesses offer unique and well-crafted items that will last a lifetime. Shop local to find the perfect gift!
