Shop Local Small Business Saturday

Gain Big Results

Each year, American Express sponsors Small Business Saturday the day after Black Friday to encourage people to shop at small businesses. The single day has grown into a very strong movement, starting in   2010.

The Grand Strand, stretching the many miles that it does, has grown expeditiously over the decades. However, it is rooted in small, family-owned businesses. Today, many of those generations of ancestors still carry on the family name in serving locals and tourists alike.

Whether retail shops, restaurants, hospitality, real estate, service stations, publications or the myriad of other establishments and companies, this beach is rich with industrious-minded individuals and families.

Take time this holiday season to stop and patronize our local small business partners. We appreciate them and their commitment. They continue to make this area strong and successful.
