Why Local?


Local businesses enhance our community, connect and support us socially, and enhance wealth and employment by circulating dollars many times between businesses. Research shows that BC local businesses create more than double the economic impact of their out-of-market competitors. For every $100 spent with a BC local business, $63 is re-circulated back into our BC economy.
