KEEP YOUR BUSINESS ALIVE

during COVID-19 and beyond

Long before COVID-19, local communities tried reviving their economy by promoting “shop local” ad campaigns, then confinement took place and everything stopped. Forced to stay at home, we all started shopping online from Amazon, eBay, Alibaba, etc. which made their owners richer and us more dependent on them. In doing so, we have stopped supporting our local economy, and especially all the retailers, restaurants and small businesses in our communities. Walking the streets, we can all see that one in two stores have closed, and those that are still open are struggling because of strict social distancing guidance. Our platform will allow all of us to maintain our local consumption and shopping habits. You are welcome to shop locally, order food from your favorite restaurants, and do business online at LocalCommunity.Shopping. Using the platform is absolutely free for local shoppers, retailers, restaurants and small businesses. The platform is also an online community where you can communicate with your friends and neighbors, as well as find local news and a calendar of events.
