Support Local
Supporting local businesses is important and meaningful to our local economy now more than ever. The COVID-19 pandemic has brought on staff lay offs, requests for financial credit, rent deferrals, and noticeable decreases in revenue. Small business owners bring character, friendliness, and better customer service to the neighborhood. You matter and your values and desires have much more of an influence to your local community businesses than the large big box stores.
"Going local means nurturing locally owned businesses which use local resources sustainably. It means becoming more self-sufficient and less dependant on imports. Control moves from the boardrooms of distant corporations and back into the community where it belongs.” – Michael H. Shuman, author of the book Going Local.
In Canada, 32.0% of businesses with 500 or more employees reported declines in revenue of 20% or more. This figure almost doubles for smaller businesses where nearly 60% of those with 1 to 4 employees and nearly 56% of those with 5 to 19 employees reported declines in revenue 20% or more (Stats Canada, 2020).
