Have you started your Christmas shopping? Before you get too
far along, consider the benefits of spending your shopping dollars within your
own community. Fishers is a vibrant city, filled with diverse options for goods
and services. This holiday season, as you’re shopping for a variety of
different gifts, think Fishers first.
When you choose to support local businesses, you reinvest in
your own community. Each dollar spent at a local business generates three times
more wealth to the local economy than a chain retailer. Additionally, local
businesses donate more than two times as much sales revenue per dollar to local
non-profits, events and teams compared to chain retailers.
While big-box retailers deliver unbeatable deals on hot
ticket items during the holiday season, local businesses offer unique products
crafted by local entrepreneurs and artisans. It’s our local businesses that
give our community its distinct personality.
This holiday season, we’ve teamed up with local businesses
for Shop Fishers, a local shopping extravaganza. On Saturday, Nov. 28, local
businesses throughout the city will offer special deals throughout the day. To
learn more about participating businesses and the deals they’ll offer, visit www.fishers.in.us/ShopFishers. Download
the NPD App and enable push notifications for reminders about Shop Fishers and
deals taking place during the event.
While Shop Fishers is a great time to discover the offerings
of our local businesses, we encourage you to shop local as often as you
can. Think Fishers first.
