Supporting local businesses is one of our favorite things to do ALL YEAR!
PMC Contributor Amelia, reflects on her love of small business and how she hopes her kids will grow to love it, too:
“While growing up, I remember shopping with my mom throughout the year at some of our favorite local businesses and shops. I consider it a core memory because it fostered my love of shopping and because my mom seemed to already know or just easily connect with the people who worked in these businesses. She herself owned a cleaning service, so maybe it was part of her own networking, but hearing from the owners and the store employees brought a special feel to our shopping there. They became people to me, with stories and similar lives to ours, not just employees of a store!
Shopping local is a value I hope to instill in my kids, too, and as a small business owner myself, I know the impact even one sale can have on a person.
When you shop locally, you’re supporting a family, a dream, and giving right back to your own community.”
So, with that said, PMC is thrilled to bring you our 2024 Guide to Shopping Local!
We hope this helps you find the PERFECT gift while supporting our Pensacola business community:
