WHY GO LOCAL?
KEEP MONEY IN OUR ‘HOOD: For every $100 spent at a locally owned business, $45 goes back in the community - and our tax base. For every $100 spent at a chain store, only $14 comes back.
SUPPORT COMMUNITY GROUPS: Nonprofits receive an average 350% more support from local business owners than they do from non-locally-owned businesses. Check out our “Go Local” page on our website for all the donations we made in the past year.
EMBRACE WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT: We buy brands we know you’ll love and we introduce you to the top new brands on the market—keeping you informed along the way. We get to know your name and look forward to sharing our knowledge about our products.
INVEST IN THE COMMUNITY: Local businesses are owned by the people who live here, work here and are more invested in our future!
GET BETTER SERVICE: Local businesses often hire people who have a better understanding of the products they’re selling, and take more time to know their customers.
