Why shop Indie?

Why shop Indie?
When you shop at an independently owned business, your entire community benefits:
The Economy Spend $100 at a local and $68 of that stays in your community. Spend the same $100 at a national chain, and your community only sees $43.Local businesses create higher-paying jobs for our neighbors. More of your taxes are reinvested in your community--where they belong.The Environment Buying local means less packaging, less transportation, and a smaller carbon footprint. Shopping in a local business district means less infrastructure, less maintenance, and more money to beautify your community.The Community Local retailers are your friends and neighbors—support them and they’ll support you .Local businesses donate to charities at more than twice the rate of national chains. More independents means more choice, more diversity, and a truly unique community. Great article !!! We truly love our community and always thank-you for your support we could not do it with out you.
