This Saturday Remember to Shop Small for Small Business Saturday® In Georgia

Annual initiative aims to boost shopping, dining, and entertaining at local small businesses on Saturday, November 26 

Shopping small and making a holiday purchase at a small business on Small Business Saturday is a way to show support for the small businesses that create jobs, boost the economy, enrich our neighborhoods, and help keep our local communities vibrant.  

While you are supporting your local small businesses for Small Business Saturday, dine small, too — visit your local eateries and independent restaurants. We encourage small businesses to leverage Small Business Saturday to help drive more traffic to their businesses – whether through their doors or to their e-commerce site during the holiday shopping season and throughout the year.  

The SBA is proud to be a cosponsor of Small Business Saturday, founded by American Express in 2010. To learn more about Small Business Saturday and how both shoppers and small business owners can participate, visit https://www.sba.gov/saturday.

Let us know how you’re supporting by tagging us at @SBA_Georgia and using #ShopSmall and #SmallBizSat while you shop at your favorite local small businesses this holiday season!
