Why Should I Shop Locally?,
One of the primary purposes of Bloomfield Main Street is
to focus on downtown business district revitalization. This includes
everything from preserving the historical architecture of our town
square, to assisting those interested in starting a business, to
creating events and activities intended to draw people into the downtown
area.
While we strive daily to make this happen, it can’t be
fully-realized without you doing your part as well! Here is a list of
reasons to support those local businesses, excerpted from 10 Reasons
Why Vermont’s Homegrown Economy Matters and 50 Proven Ways to Revive It
:
Local Character & Prosperity
-
Communities that preserve their one-of-a-kind businesses and
character have an economic advantage in an increasingly
homogenized world.
Community Well-Being
Local
Decision-Making
Keeping Dollars in
the Local Economy
Entrepreneurship
Competition
Product Diversity
-
A multitude of
small businesses, each selecting products based, not on a national
sales plan, but on their own interests and the needs of their local
customers, guarantees a much broader range of product choices
