04.01.2022 SHOP LOCAL CAMPAIGN 5 Great Reasons to Shop Locally 1. Buy Local - Support yourself - where we shop, eat and have fun is all part of making our community home.... 2. Create More Good Jobs - Small local businesses are the largest employers Nationally and are committed to keeping those jobs local rather than shipping them out to a head office. 3. Invest in Community - Local businesses are owned by people who live in this community, are less likely to leave when things get tough and have more invested in our communitys future. 4. Keep Our Community Unique - Locally owned businesses are part of the distinctive character of our towns. Not only is this great for us - but also to potential visitors and tourists. No one needs to travel to see a main street full of franchises. 5. Get Better Service - Local businesses often hire people with better understanding of the produce they are selling.
