It’s tough these days for local businesses to stay open. They face stiff competition from big-box chain stores, as well as from online retailers, which can usually offer lower prices and a larger selection. If you want to see Springfield’s local businesses survive and prosper, the best thing you can do is go the extra mile — or more accurately, stay close to home - to shop here.

When you invest money in your local economy, you’re not just helping local business owners —you’re also helping yourself. You’re making Springfield a better place to live in, with a thriving economy, and a tightly knit community. And the more local businesses prosper, the more new ones will open, existing businesses will expand - making it even easier to continue shopping locally in the future.
