ssbn's Online Marketplace is a resource for businesses and consumers to find Independent, Locally-Owned Businesses offering the goods and services they need.
More and more businesses and people are coming to realize that choosing to support Independent businesses is essentially voting with their dollars for a healthy local economy.
Independent businesses are more accountable to customers and the community, are more likely to support local charities, and are less likely to pollute and degrade the environment.
What's more, money spent at locally-owned businesses circulates longer in the local economy, increasing the economic multiplier, instead of flying out of town to distant shareholders.
Help to grow a local living economy in our region by telling your family and friends about ssbn, The Green Pages, and Buy Fresh Buy Local.
