Why Support Local Businesses?

  • Locally-owned businesses build strong communities by sustaining town centers, connecting neighbors in a web of economic and social relationships and contributing to local causes.
  • Compared to big box or chain stores, locally-owned businesses infuse a much larger share of their revenue back into the local economy.
  • Locally-owned businesses offer opportunities for better jobs, wages and benefits.
  • Local ownership ensures that important decisions are made by people who live in the community and who will feel the impact of those decisions.

Things to Do That Support Local Businesses in Pantego

  • Take advantage of summer camps and events in Pantego for your child at Free Range Pumpkins and Art Smart.
  • Instead of getting a gift from a bigger chain business, swing by Hank & Ellie or Anything Goes for a personal gift.
