Item Description

For every $100 you spend at an independently owned business, $68 will stay in the community. Did you know that when you spend the same amount at a national chain, only $43 stays in the community? Local businesses like Greenlight employ local people - they hire people who could be your neighbors, which pumps money directly back into the immediate surroundings, and keeps your tax dollars local. All this makes an independently owned business a part of the fabric of your community, helping to make the neighborhood more interesting and unique – buying at local businesses ensures a strong and vibrant community. Buying from local businesses also cuts down on the environmental costs of packaging and shipping, lowering our collective carbon footprint.
