Benefits of Shopping Local

August 16th, 2021 by Wagner Realty

Shop Local Sarasota

It's impossible to overstate the importance of shopping locally. It buoys the local economy and supports your friends' and neighbors' businesses. It also puts a wealth of unique goods at your fingertips that you might otherwise have missed... plus, it's fun!

Our real estate agents have always believed in the power of shopping locally here in the Bradenton and Sarasota areas, and we have some truly incredible local businesses at our doorstep. Here's how you can support them.

What Happens When You Shop Local

On a smaller scale—a local scale—you really can make a difference. Here's how it benefits your community when you shop local:

Your money stays local. Studies show that for every $100 you spend at a local business, $68 stays within the community, nurturing the local economy.
You help the environment. Yes, shopping local is greener! It creates less waste by reducing the need for packaging and transportation of the goods you buy.
You create local jobs. Local businesses are more likely to offer quality, high-paying jobs in your community.
You embrace what makes your community unique. Chances are, your local businesses offer something special and different from what the big national chains do. Shopping local encourages and supports that unique community identity.

Shopping Local in Bradenton & Sarasota

There are many fantastic locally owned businesses in our area. When planning your next local shopping trip, be sure to check out these businesses:

The Bazaar on Apricot & Lime - 821 Apricot Ave, Sarasota, FL 34237
You never know what you'll find at The Bazaar on Apricot & Lime! This unique indoor indie market hosts some of the coolest local vendors offering handmade jewelry, clothing, arts, crafts, and more. Plus, it's just minutes from these Sarasota homes for sale.

We're blessed with a lot of awesome local breweries here in Sarasota, but Calusa Brewing is definitely one of our favorites. They create an incredible selection of craft beers and ales, ranging from traditional styles to creative experiments, and serve them up in their lively taproom space.
