Shopping local creates jobs- local shops create local employment and self-employment. These people in turn spend in the local economy.
Local independent shops invest more in our communities- local businesses are proportionally more generous in their support of local charities, schools, and community events. Supporting local shops means a financial contribution to your community.
Local shops sell great products at affordable prices- some people get out of the habit of shopping locally and are then surprised by the range of products available.
Shopping locally maintains our communities- people don’t like losing shops and services in small towns but don’t equate this with how they spend their money.
Local shops value your business more- people receive better care and service locally. These businesses survive by their reputation and repeat business, which means you get a higher standard of service.
