NBC WRAL News – Since the pandemic started, thousands of restaurants -- many of them local, have shut their doors permanently across the United States.
But Our Town America of The Triangle franchise owner Sally Hanson says, “We all have a role to play in saving our local businesses. We can change our habits just a little - such as shopping local when you can instead of buying from Amazon, for example.”
For every dollar spent at a small business, approximately 67 cents stays in the local community. Franchises employ roughly 8 million people nationwide, and even they are typically locally owned.
Hanson suggests a few tips to help 'Save Our Town':
Both Our Town America of The Triangle and the Our Town America franchise as a whole want consumers and business owners nationwide to know that we're here to support you during this time by offering various methods to relay business offerings to locals. Both local business owners and consumers will benefit from banding together to strengthen local economies.
