Are you a local shop? Then these stats here from Carol Schroeder show why youβre important to your community.
$48 of every $100 stays in the community when you shop at an indie store. $14 of every $100 stays in the community when you shop at a chain store. Indie stores contribute: 3X MORE :)
For every $10 million in sales at a brick and mortar store, they employ 47 people. For every $10 million in sales at Amazon, it employs 19 people. Indie stores contribute: 2X MORE to local employment :)
Thank you @ellieproctorantiques for re-stating this so eloquently. I too get so much joy from curating products that I believe my clients and customers will love. Personal attention in retail is sadly becoming a dying art, but those of us who truly do it from the heart, will be the most successful.

Imagine there is a company that does to bread what Bridge does to retail? There is: La Boulangerie and its founder seek to help resuscitate the French bread business. I enjoyed reading the parallels between the bread business and our retail industry. Both have seen manufacturers encroach up the food chain closer to the end consumer. Both have seen a degradation in the quality of the product. And both have seem a reduction in jobs that hurts the local community.
