Support Your Neighborhood & Community

One of the best reasons to shop locally is to strengthen the place you call home.

Small businesses are often owned and operated by your community “neighbors,” and they contribute to the local economy by creating jobs, paying taxes, and investing in the town and region. When you shop at a local business, you’re supporting your neighbors’. You’re also promoting the development of your community. Every local purchase results in multiple benefits!

Get Personalized Service

Local businesses often offer a more personalized experience than chain businesses.

The owners and staff are more likely to engage customers in conversation, exchange local news, get to know their patrons, and develop a relationship with them. Local business can often customize services and make recommendations based on their customers’ styles, needs, and preferences.

Discover Unique Products and Services

Local establishments often offer unique products and services that are not available at larger chain stores.

That’s because they can be more flexible and responsive to their customers' preferences, especially those of their “regulars.” Shopping locally allows you to find items, offerings, and discounts that aren’t available anywhere else. When you’re loyal to a local business, they’ll be loyal to you as well!

Be Kind to the Environment

Shopping locally can also have environmental benefits.

When you shop at small businesses, you’re showing some love to the planet by:

Reducing the need for long-distance shipping and transportation, which leads to fewer carbon emissions generated from large delivery vehicles over long distances.
Supporting businesses that are more likely to offer environmentally friendly products and sustainable practices than large corporations.
Combining errands within walking distance of fewer drop-off or parking locations; this limits travel time and reduces the carbon emissions generated from your own car, taxi, or rideshare service.

Keep Your Community Socially Vibrant

Small businesses also contribute to the social fabric of a community

They provide a gathering place for locals where residents can meet and interact with each other. They may also sponsor local events and activities, which bring the community together and foster a sense of shared pride and belonging. By supporting small businesses, you are helping to strengthen the community and you make it strong and vibrant.

Happiness

Studies show that people with diverse social connections have an increased sense of contentment and wellbeing in their lives

Even and especially informal ones, like the eatery hosts and shopkeepers at your most-frequented establishments.

When you shop locally, you get to know the people who make up your community better, even if you only visit their businesses a couple of times per month. Building these small casual relationships can help you feel more connected with your community and happier with the life you live in.

Get Better Quality Products

Small businesses often offer superior products than larger chain stores

This is because they’re more likely to take pride in their merchandise and services, and to invest in quality materials and craftsmanship. They may also have more control over their supply chains, which helps to ensure that their products meet high standards.
