Support Local Businesses This Holiday Shopping Season

Share

As the holidays draw closer, it is officially small business season and Galesburg Area Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Pam Gaither encourages shoppers to support the local small businesses:

“It is small business season and I want to encourage shopping local and supporting our small businesses. You see a lot of communication from us coming out about that and it is just that general reminder to think about shopping local, looking to your neighboring local businesses to do your holiday shopping this year. It is a good reminder for everyone and they have a lot of options and a lot of really unique gifts, definitely a good idea to turn to them.”

Small Business Saturday is Saturday, November 25th.
