READ: Why Shop Local? Here’s Why It Makes a Big Difference!

Ahead of Small Business Saturday, NFIB Senior State Director Dawn McVea encouraged Texans to support local businesses during the holiday season and all year round. In an op-ed in The Leader News, McVea wrote: “When you shop at a small business, there’s a good chance you’ll be dealing directly with the owner, someone with a vested interest in turning you from a seasonal drop-in to a regular customer. You’ll also find unique merchandise you won’t find at the mall. “ CLICK HERE to read the full op-ed.
