Why Shop Local?

Tuesday February 01, 2011

The 3/50 concept

 

3
 

What three independently owned businesses would you miss in North Grenville if they disappeared? Stop in, say hello, buy something for yourself or someone you care about. Your purchases are what keeps these businesses around. 

 

50 

 

If half of the employed population in Canada spent $50 a month in locally owned, independent businesses, it would generate billions in revenue. Imagine the impact if ¾ of the employed population did that?

 

68 

 

For every $ 100 spent in locally owned independent businesses, $ 68 returns to the community through taxes, payroll and other expenditures.

 

1 The number of people it takes to start the trend…..you!

  

    

  

  

      

Let’s continue to work together to support local business!
