Small businesses have been especially hit hard during the pandemic. American Express is shining a light on small businesses across the U.S. and sharing stories about how they are persevering in these challenging times.
#ShopSmall is an initiative to get people to support the small businesses in the heart of their community. Whether you are ordering takeout or shopping online, the goal is to make a concerted effort by frequenting these businesses as much as possible.
And with the holiday shopping season around the corner, this is a great time to start supporting local businesses in your community.
So #ShopSmall starting now and continuing long after the holiday shopping season and Small Business Saturday, into the new year and the pandemic ends.
